Review Quotes




"The sunnily optimistic picture book The Pelican Can! uses bold graphics to capture the vibrant world of a can-do bird."--Parade Magazine, "The 25 Best New Book Releases This Week"

"Yuly delivers plenty of page-turning visual drama...Artfully placed text mimics the pelicans' path as they fly, dive, "SPLASH!," and scoop, enhancing the book's visual delight and the appeal of decoding words and images as readers follow the pelicans from page to page."
--Horn Book

* "Displays the pelican's power and balletic grace...the pelican's natural behavior supplies all the visual drama the story needs." --Publishers Weekly, starred review

* "Repetitive, rhyming, call-and-response-style text makes this one a sure bet for the younger set...torn-paper, ink, and digital-media artwork is the standout here....Yuly imbues her subject with verve and energy; readers will be just as eager to see the results of the pelican's flight as the birds waiting back home in the nest."

--Kirkus Reviews, starred review
