“Relying on a pitch-perfect combination of minimal text and expansive artwork, Brown once more offers a richly vivid, honest, and reassuring depiction of a potentially unfamiliar experience. Her colorful, clean-lined cartoons are full of sweet vignettes—each scene is practically a story in itself. . . . An impressively understated, respectful exploration of a big change.”
—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

“An appealing family story, well-suited for both one-on-one and large-group read-alouds.”
—School Library Journal

“As always, there’s plenty to take in, smile at, and relate to. . . . Lighthearted elements, especially regarding the unreliability of the brother’s narration, mix with more poignant ones. Brown’s mixed-media illustrations feature their usual clear colors, clean lines, and wealth of detail.”
—The Horn Book (starred review)

“While clearly acknowledging that “sometimes I don’t want to move,” the larger theme here is that homes are where we make memories—some good and some bad—and that moving holds the promise of making new ones, always with the people we love. An inviting and reassuring discussion starter for families preparing to pack up.”
—Booklist

“The Moving Book is a tender and funny meditation on memory, sibling dynamics and the meaning of home.” —BookPage
