"[A] bravura picture book . With its righteous turning of tables courtesy of Millie's quick thinking, Into the Goblin Market , which was inspired by the like-themed Christina Rossetti poem, earns a spot in the contemporary fairy-tale pantheon. Eckwall's black-and-white art, which has the look of elaborate woodcuts, hosts a cauldron's worth of classic fairy-tale allusions. Readers can spot a piper, a witch with a (presumably) poisoned apple, and, in one of the book's occasional blasts of color, rescue-mode Millie in a red hood, conjuring another red-cloaked hero of the fairy-tale world." --STARRED REVIEW Shelf Awareness "A gratifying, happy-ever-after tale of symbiotic sororal cleverness." -- Kirkus Reviews ""A beautiful blend of classic aesthetics and modern sensibilities with a marvelous message of courage and love. [A] bewitching book." -- Booklist "This is a deliciously spooky story inspired by Christina Rossetti's poem 'The Goblin Market' and classic fairy tales.
It is perfectly matched with black and red block print-type illustrations. This will be a delight to read with children!" -- Vicky Titcomb, Titcomb's Bookshop, East Sandwich, MA.
