"The story is a satisfying balance of familiar and fresh, with an endearing protagonist and an especially timely message about isolation and connection... Utterly delightful." — Kirkus Reviews, STARRED review
"I loved the illustrations in this story—bright, bold, and showed the hilarious expression of Gil on his adventures. I think children will enjoy seeing his new home choices and deciding for themselves if those choices would be right for Gil." — Youth Services Book Review
