Praise for Todd Parr:

"It's rare that a children's author appeals to adults, but when it happens, it's usually magic: Dr. Seuss, Shel Silverstein.... Well, I've found another to add to the list: Todd Parr." I>Kansas City Star

"Each book offers his bold, almost Haringesque signature style incorporating primary colors with messages that encourage and empower children to communicate their feelings while embracing their individuality."
