Critical Reviews
Praise for BORIS ON THE MOVE: *"For emergent readers who view themselves as accomplished (or wish to be seen that way), this, one of the publisher's Branches line, might just be the perfect choice."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review"Joyner moves effortlessly between small written sections and big illustrations with comic style text. Really gorgeous...But above all, they're just ridiculously fun boy books."--Elizabeth Bird, New York Public Library
