Rezensionen
"The Tankards' debut collaboration is a delightfully quirky and lively introduction to Shakespearean conventions and iambic pentameter. Fun, forsooth." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"[A] joyous, cross-generational read-aloud. A true comedy." - Booklist

"Hermione's droll text is slyly matched with Jeremy's fast-paced, emotive art, often with an inside-comics flair. It's tragedy and comedy combined, and that - plus flashes of merriment - captures the spirit of Yorick and his adorable companion." - The New York Times Book Review
