"I found this book, written in rhyming couplets, to be a true visual delight, with the wide-open expanses of the desert depicted in tones of ochre and green, and the joyfully bright pueblo adobe houses shown in their contrasting vibrant colors. The concept of finding happiness within ourselves, despite not being a new one, is so well presented here that The Bug’s Journey: A Story for All Ages is well worth acquiring." - Lois Henderson
"The artwork of this book is excellent. Done in pen and ink, as well as cut-out paper, this mixed media is clever and colorful, bringing detailed landscapes to the reader’s eye. This unique art style is a breath of fresh air compared to some of the computer-generated art so often presented in children’s books." - Bruce Anderson
"The meandering story about Boswell’s various escapades kept me enchanted. George and Merrijo Wheaton suggest that this book is for readers of all ages. After reading it, I could not agree more. The story touched my heart with its soothing fingers, reminding me that happiness can exist even during the most turbulent times. The story is so uplifting that I wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone requiring a little relief from daily ordeals and stress." - Shrabastee Chakraborty
