Reviews
"An undeniably impressive bit of optical trickery with an even neater narrative flip at the conclusion."--Booklist, "An undeniably impressive bit of optical trickery with an even neater narrative flip at the conclusion."-- Booklist "M.C. Escher's grayscale tessellations and stairways-to-nowhere set the stage for this inspired adventure by Johnson (the Henry series)...The written tale, of Mauk defying gravity to evade punishment, unifies the perspective-busting illustrations, which acquire new meanings on the inverted run-through. Johnson's optical illusions salute Escher and establish a clever slapstick sequence."-- Publishers Weekly
