Review Quotes

Pure Moxie. - Kirkus Reviews

In the spirit of the figure, Denise writes with the fierce tonality as AOC's firebrand speeches. Likewise, Lora's bright, jam-packed digital illustrations maintain maximalist energy through slick, unlined scenes of obstacles met and achievements scored, making this a glam playbook for young politicos. - Publishers Weekly

The upbeat text and vibrant illustrations depict a positive, youthful persona, and the book's message about the need for equal rights and services comes through loud and clear. - Booklist (starred review)
