"This captivating telling isn’t a typical pulling-a-rabbit-out-of-a-hat tale...Young readers will not only enjoy the narrative but will also pick up the hidden cues woven into the illustrations. A recommended read-aloud for those looking for an unusual yet simple magician story." –School Library Journal   "The razzle-dazzle magic performed by the two lead characters and the sizable cast of chubby rabbits is adeptly captured in the whimsical illustrations." —Booklist   "Wry understatement provides giggles...but it’s the prolonged investigation of the reversal of power that gives this tale the substance of a graphic novel. It’s like an update on “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice”—one in which the apprentice succeeds. —Publishers Weekly   "McLaren hits all the right notes... A study in leporine whimsy with lingering poignance." —Kirkus
