Editorial Reviews

“Each of the Mole Sisters books reads like a short animated film; quick, droll, colorful, it’s over in a minute, leaving its audience amused and charmed.”

The Globe and Mail

“Charming, whimsical, and as refreshing as cool water on a hot day . . . These two small books are highly recommended for small children and depressed adults.”

Canadian Book Review Annual

“Joyful, fun, and unsentimental, the mole sisters have fun wherever they are and whatever havoc they might be wreaking!”

The Children’s Bookroom, 07/01/19

“Welcome additions.”

School Library Journal

“The prose is gentle and easily remembered . . . Schwartz’s warm, colored-pencil artwork mirrors the joy and innocence of her characters.”

Hamilton Spectator
