"Fernandez enthusiastically narrates Martin’s picture-book biography of Will Allen, the professional
basketball player who became an urban farmer. Fernandez uses a voice that is clear and well modulated,
and he reads slowly enough for young readers to follow along in the book. He switches emotions easily,
from jolly, when talking about Allen’s personality, to discouraged, when talking about the polluted soil of
his city lots. The narration is backed by related sound effects..." Booklist

The accompanying picture book's illustrations are eye-popping, and Los Angeles-based graffiti artist Man One's narration has a style all his own, especially his rap delivery of the book's short cooking poems."
