"Not the book to pick up for a history lesson, this is instead a weird but sincerely funny tale about a kid struggling to find where he fits in. Though the story is clever, the illustrations are where the unusual premise comes alive. Catrow's distorted characters and circus-colored palette extend the fable-like atmosphere Reiss sets up with his purposely pokerfaced text."
Krista Hutley, Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, January 2004
