Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:

As two children and their pet gazelle sneak out of the house in search of treasure, they come across a world beneath the city that is inhabited with monsters and pirates.


Review:

"Richly detailed watercolors in muted shades along a spectrum from sepia to salmon make Edward Gorey's work seem bereft of ghoulish imagination by comparison...."

Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, 6/1/2008

Review:

"Though some lines...strain to fit the narrative, in general the couplets demonstrate Gaiman's facility with language and imagery, flowing well and suggesting philosophical depth."

Horn Book, 7/1/2008
