Kirkus Book Review

A young boy learns to expand his sense of wonder. When Elliot leaves to go to school one rainy morning, he's surprised to see his new neighbor, an irrepressibly cheerful girl, skipping and jumping behind him. When Elliot questions what she is doing, she patiently explains, "I'm trying to avoid these portal puddles, of course. And you should, too. You never know where you might end up." She spins a fantastical yarn about how she was transported to Capt. Blackbeard's ship the last time she stepped in one. The next day, she spies the pebble Elliot is kicking and declares it must be a shrunken space ship, filled with tiny ET's. Elliot rolls his eyes, but he can't help thinking about those space travelers throughout the day. As the week goes on, Ruby's tales grow, and so does Elliot's curiosity. Mundane objects like a piece of newspaper, a fallen branch, and a stinky garbage can unleash wild, inventive stories--with Elliot finally joining in. Wavy-edged pictorial thought balloons depict the imagined adventures while real life occurs in full-bleed images with generous white space. Sanchez cleverly portrays Ruby and Elliot with large, off-kilter heads and expressive eyes, which makes one speculate about the many stories filled to the brim inside. Diversity is only found in the background; both protagonists present white, though Elliot is a smidge darker than Ruby. Imaginative play at its most fun.
