It captures the importance of individuality and of stepping out of your comfort zone...Even adults will enjoy reading along..." --Book Trib "No need to visit a museum to find an exhibit of best friendship; see it on display right here." --Kirkus * "Cordell's loose, Steig-like ink line makes emotions easy to read as the duo's interplay builds.... Their well-built adventure...offers exertion, discouragement, and a wonderfully improbable change of fortune."--Publishers Weekly, starred review * "Cordell's pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations are textured and appealing, supporting the texts and illuminating vocabulary that might be out of sight-word range for new readers building fluency."--Horn Book, starred review * "Cordell's trademark loose artwork, rendered in pen and ink with watercolor, is energetic and wonderfully captures gray Cornbread's and tan Poppy's activities, easy camaraderie, and expressive faces.... Delightful."--Kirkus, starred review * "Cornbread and Poppy are endearing characters, poised to join the ranks of other memorable early reader sets of best friends old and new, including James Marshall's George and Martha."--BookPage, starred review * "The lively ink-and-watercolor illustrations deftly create settings and clearly reveal characters' emotions. A rewarding choice for young readers."--Booklist, starred review "[C]harming [illustrations] lend a feeling of coziness to this tale of friends who are different...easy to follow for those transitioning to early chapter books...A perfect choice for fans of Jacqueline ­Davies's 'Sydney and Taylor' series, and other dynamic duos."--School Library Journal "Brimming with imagination, energy, and wit. Just right for young readers." --Booklist "Cordell's scratchy illustrations seem like descendants of Edward Gorey.... A twee answer to "Frog and Toad" that will serve readers of early chapter books."--School Library Journal "Frog and Toad vibes are strong in this new early reader series about two mice who are best friends...Illustrated in muted pastels that reflect the season, the three short chapters pack in a lot of adventure..."--Parents "Into the society of [Frog and Toad and George and Martha] we can now welcome two mice.... [Beginning] with an Aesop-like predicament...Mr. Cordell's humorous [drawings] keep things buoyant as Cornbread and Poppy bundle up and venture off."--The Wall Street Journal "Pair of Mice Find Friendship Very Nice" --The Florida-Times Union "This sweet friendship book by Caldecott Medalist Matthew Cordell reminds me of books I loved reading with my kids when they were younger."--Book Riot
