Reviews / Votes
"A pyrotechnical display of color and line. [Rilla Alexander's] polished spreads dazzle. Silkscreen-style swoops and swirls of scarlet, navy, teal, and yellow give each page outsize graphic impact."-Publisher's Weekly
"[...] unlike most books and utterly different from anything that can be found on the shelves of major book retailers. [...] a brilliant, innovative and highly imaginative story that is bound to captivate and delight people of all ages-especially creative individuals who know what it feels like to have ideas at random. (5 out of 5 stars)"
-The Examiner
"Her Idea is a fun read for kids and former kids alike, because we all have great ideas up to the point when we have to work on them."
-Joy Corcoran
"A great story about organization and creativity. . . . Alexander's illustrations have a screenprinted style, and her use of minimal colors makes for a 'do-it-yourself' feel. . . . Big on imagination."
-School Library Journal
"Through bright color choices and geometric shapes, Rilla Alexander's picture book is a visual feast. [...] This metafictive picture book will ignite conversations and transport readers into the pages of the story."
-Dragon Lode
"Children often struggle with feeling overwhelmed by a big idea that seems too difficult to complete. This book is a great reminder that if we focus on taking one step at a time, we can accomplish anything"
