“Loosely sketched florals burst along the bottoms of pages and seep into scenes, communicating the expedition’s breezy exuberance. . . . The camaraderie between Rus and Moose makes for a winsome picture book debut.”

— Publishers Weekly

"There are several lovely aspects to this book. First, it centers around an unexpected friendship and shows how very different personalities can still become close friends. Second, it introduces readers to the trucking profession and brings to light the life and duties of a trucker. Last, it highlights the importance of family, and in this case, shows the problem truckers have due to the regular and longer separations. In other words, there's all sorts of goodness in these pages."
