"The Landströms’ Pom, who bears a striking resemblance to a 3-year-old Winston Churchill, ventures out into the world with his comrade, Pim… They weather the storms of misfortune and revel in fortune’s smiles… A perfect primer for the existential philosophy required for a small one to make it through the day."
- Starred Review, Kirkus (US),
"The brief text and droll ink and watercolor illustrations keep the focus tightly on Pom and Pim, working together brilliantly to bring out the considerable situational humor … [It is] entrancing."
- Starred Review, The Horn Book (US),
"This gentle tale demonstrates the silver lining to every cloud…Such elegance in a childrens book is a rare and special treat."
