Starred Review "This charming audio presentation of Troy Johnston's picture book that celebrates the power of language soars thanks to evocative sound effects and narrator Marc Thompson's impressive vocal acrobatics. This playful title demonstrates how "letters hold magic" by showing how they form a wide assortment of powerful, sometimes nonsensical words that can be mighty, yummy, or even bewitching, among other things."

Starred Review When her Spanish-speaking grandmother comes to live with Mia and her family, Mia is happy but also worried that she won't be able to tell her all the things a granddaughter should because of their language barrier. ... The Amador family, who also narrates the English-language version, creates a delightful and loving interplay among themselves in this Spanish edition.... Upbeat Latin music composed by Brian Amador and appropriate background sound effects round out and enrich the production." Booklist

"Mattie travels with her family as part of a magic act—but her family’s magic is real. ... Descriptions of the wonders of the circus and its performers shine. Zimmerman deftly portrays varied southern accents for the town locals. The Scottish accents for Mattie’s Da and Ringmaster Morough are distinct.... This story combines the appeals of a tween with real world problems—struggling with parental expectations and navigating new friendships—with a lush circus setting and the chance to oppose a magical menace."
