"Narrator Peter Pamela Rose does everything to enhance this gentle story. With background music and sound effects-pages rustling as Catina writes her book, pots bubbling while Houndsley makes his three-bean chili-and sweet, clever illustrations, the whole package is a serene treat."

"Sometimes dreaming is even better than making plans" says Houndsley, as he enjoys the quiet time brought about by a major snowstorm. At first, his friend Catina frets about being snowed in and missing the concert scheduled for that evening. But, as the snowfall continues, she begins to accept whatever the day brings - and appreciates the quiet and the chance to dream in this gentle reminder for everyone about the importance of taking time out.

"As the two friends Houndsley and Catina delve into canoeing, biking, and swimming, something seems to be hindering their friendship... Peter Pamela Rose enthusiastically characterizes the animal friends. She delivers a deep, slow voice for Houndsley and a high-pitched, animated one for Catina... she narrates at a deliberate pace that is perfect for young listeners."-AudioFile

"Author Tony Medina pays tribute to legendary musician, poet, and activist Bob Marley in this outstanding production narrated by Jaime Lincoln Smith.... Smith's Jamaican accent and spot-on delivery animate the words, lifting them above evocative soundscapes enriched with selections from Marley's music. Enjoying the picture book's vibrant illustrations by Jesse Joshua Watson or reading along with the text can enhance the listening experience. Still, the audio performance stands remarkably well on its own." AudioFile Magazine
