'What a con job!I mean that in the best possible way.Vic was tricky but so is Greg Pizzoli. His storytelling and mixed-media artwork is rendered with expert sleight of hand.'Lane Smith, Caldecott Honor winner for The Stinky Cheese Man and Grandpa Green

'It's hard enough to make a well-told story out of real-life things-it's almost unfair that Greg Pizzoli could also make it this pretty.'Jon Klassen, Caldecott Medal-winning author and illustrator of This Is Not My Hat
