Praise for Stuck…

"Jeffers’ light-handed illustrations are hilariously droll . . . The giggle-inducing conclusion leaves some stuff, um, up in the air." A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2011
-Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Yields a childlike aesthetic sure to tickle the funny bones of its target audience–and of the adults who share the story with youngsters."
-School Library Journal (starred review)
