"This picture book embeds a lesson in primary and secondary colors into a simple narrative." - Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books Praise for Apple Farmer Annie : ".it has much to offer both the eyes and the mind. Wellington, perhaps best known for All My Little Ducklings , has outdone herself with the bursting, ripe brightness of her illustrations." - Kirkus Book Reviews "Charming and cheery, her story makes a great read-aloud. The illustrations seem to step right out of a coloring book with simple shapes, objects, and bright, crayon-box colors." - School Library Journal "The illustrations, bright, colorful, and detailed, have a pleasant, childlike quality, and recipes for applesauce, muffins, and cake make for extra fun." - Booklist Praise for Gabby and Grandma Go Green : "This upbeat picture book is charming and attractive.

The rounded simple shapes give the art a childlike feel, and the many things to look at can turn the book into an interactive experience as adults ask children what they spy. A delightful way to introduce "going green." - Booklist "Wellington energetically weaves an optimistic green message into an urban backdrop." - Publishers Weekly.
