Reviews"A dry-humored modern fairy tale...Damant's bright and cheery illustrations bring a Mary Blair-meets-Pixar aesthetic to the pages, which is ideally suited to the way Snyder blends contemporary and classic details."--Publishers Weekly "A pint-sized king's boredom and his easy access to a wizard result in a series of messes...excitement personified...Damant's illustrations portray a diverse cast."--Kirkus Reviews "Enjoyment here...filled with Damant's big and often pink- or purple-hued digitally created artwork, which has a zany, retro feel. These work in happy conjunction with Synder's accessible, comical text. Kids who like a little chaos in their fairy tales will enjoy this offering, and maybe learn a lesson about not always demanding more."--Booklist, "A dry-humored modern fairy tale...Damant's bright and cheery illustrations bring a Mary Blair-meets-Pixar aesthetic to the pages, which is ideally suited to the way Snyder blends contemporary and classic details."--Publishers Weekly "A pint-sized king's boredom and his easy access to a wizard result in a series of messes...excitement personified...Damant's illustrations portray a diverse cast."--Kirkus Reviews, "A dry-humored modern fairy tale...Damant's bright and cheery illustrations bring a Mary Blair-meets-Pixar aesthetic to the pages, which is ideally suited to the way Snyder blends contemporary and classic details."--Publishers Weekly "A pint-sized king's boredom and his easy access to a wizard result in a series of messes...excitement personified...Damant's illustrations portray a diverse cast."--Kirkus Reviews "Enjoyment here...filled with Damant's big and often pink- or purple-hued digitally created artwork, which has a zany, retro feel.
