Lily Blue Riding Hood is pure delight, giving the reader a smile or a laugh on every page. . . . Kids and their grownups will want to read this over and over. And some “readings” will be just to savor the wonderfully colorful and detailed illustrations by Kim Barnes which greatly add to the humor and appeal of this book."—Sydney Taylor Shmooze
