A Book Riot Best Children’s Book of the Year
"Rosemary’s upbeat attitude makes this book a ray of autumn sunshine. Distinctive gouache and crayon art, naïve and cheerful, matches the mood.... This perky pooch will have youngsters adopting a similarly positive perspective."
Kirkus Reviews
"Ghahremani continues to convey all the innocence and joy of childhood with this sweet story. This book brings simple joy to all collections."
School Library Journal
"Ghahremani’s text is tailor-made for reading aloud, full of child-pleasing commentary (“OH NO!”) and sounds (“Ahh…AHHH…ACHOO!”). Mixed-media illustrations in cheerful primary colors are imbued with personality and motion, as Rosemary’s ears go flying out behind her."
