â€œCoretta Scott King Awardâ€“winning Cooper has created a gentle, comforting story that will reassure children that those who love us are always with us.â€
â€”Booklist

â€œCooper uses his signature style to illustrate both the landscape--sometimes viewed from the car windows or reflected in the vehicle's mirror--and the expressive faces of his characters. Coupled with the story's lyrical text, this is a lovely mood piece. A quiet, warm look at the bond between grandfather and grandson.â€
