The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
“This glossy comic-book-style entry is visually arresting and appealingly quick, making for an accessible introduction to an Egyptian unit. . . Witt’s pencil and ink drawings are vividly colored, creating a bright, rich desert-scape and reinforcing the emotionally taut lives of the characters.”
