My reactions:
ReplyDeleteLiked the sound of Utterly Otterly Night but didn't especially like the illustrations.
I really really liked Balloons Over Broadway.
I also really liked Eight Class Pets Plus One Squirrel and Pie.
Strega Nona's Gift and The Case of the Lost Boy were both fine, but I didn't love them.
Still need to do some more reading.
