Review 'Un poco perdido' Withinstinctive skill, Haughton uses spreads of the forest to establish atmosphereand set up jokes, then delivers punch lines with spot illustrations that zeroin on the animals' dopey but lovable expressions. --- Publishers Weekly The art does a wonderful job of conveying movement and encouraging page turns. This little gem will work equally well in storytimes or one-on-one.--- School Library Journal Review '¡Shhh! Tenemos un plan' (STARRED REVIEW) In a gorgeous nocturnal landscape of deep purples and blues, four figures go marching along. They tiptoe towards the bird with hilariously expressive body language. In a breathtakingly rich spread, a flock of colorful, jewel-toned birds appear and drive the schemers into retreat. A masterful delight, this crafty caper has huge kid appeal and a title/refrain that will easily sneak into the family lexicon: shh! We have a plan. This perfect blend of circular narrative, deceptively spare art, and humor becomes a story that kids will want to read at storytime, at home, and to themselves if no adult is handy.


--- School Library Journal Big, blocky shapes and intense hues make the action simple to follow, and Haughton's text is similarly telegraphic. The delicious stupidity of the hunting trio, the purity of heart of their small companion, and the sweet-tempered drama of each page turn make this a classic exercise in picture-book making.--- Publishers Weekly Haughton's stylish digital illustrations in chunky patches of color make masterful use of hue and contrast--the jazzy warm-toned birds are vibrant when set against the crepuscular blues of the friends and the woods. With only a few words total, a repeated refrain, and a visually unmistakable plot, this is a great choice for emergent readers or a group storytime. - Booklist.
