    ★ “Júnior, a writer who grew up in a favela in Rio de Janeiro, has created a loving tribute to his home....Digitized acrylic paintings by Starkoff are an artfully composed quilt of colors and activity; they combine the sweep of a grand mural with intimate, relatable moments of fun, joy, and resilience, and provide plenty for young readers to notice and appreciate” — Publishers Weekly, starred review
