School Library Journal:
Young inventors as well as aviation aficionados will be intrigued. This fictionalized account is a great example of the importance of determination, derring-do, and imagination.–Barbara Elleman, Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art, Amherst, MA

Booklist:
The detailed watercolor paintings with tremendous kid appeal take readers back in time with a delightful depiction of early-twentieth-century America. This picture book is a nice choice to introduce the genre of historical fiction to children.

Kirkus Review:
A fine tribute to teenage inventors everywhere. “Dare to dream” is the clear message here.

One Smart Cookie

Written & Illustrated
by John Nez

Albert Whitman & Company
September 2006


School Library Journal:
The colorful and whimsical illustrations are quite good, reminiscent of the work of Diane deGroat and Marc Simont.

Booklist:
Quickly paced and high-spirited, the engaging story is illustrated by cheerful illustrations with bright colors, busy patterns, and lively details that offer plenty for nonreaders to look at while the story is read aloud.
