The Midwest Book Review
June 2020: Reviewer's BookWatch [excerpt]
The book is accented throughout with charming collaged artwork, adding to the visual effect the stories are already putting in effort to achieve through beautiful writing alone. Lush descriptions conjure imaginative daydreaming, but visual depictions only add to the pleasurable reading experience.
Ultimately, this is an approachable and fantastical collection, with enough variety in the topics and tone to hold interest throughout. It should be easily comprehensible for most under twelve, whether reading or being read to, and the occasional challenge words sprinkled throughout will add a bit of a learning element for curious readers. Gatza’s The Albatross Around the Neck of Albert Ross is the perfect book for a sunny afternoon, packed with stories kids long for and adults won’t mind hearing—plenty of whimsy, excitement, and magic to go around."
