"The characters are somewhat over-earnest and preachy, but the conversations between natural predators and prey make this an enjoyable read." - Kirkus.
"A cliffhanger ending, ecological lessons, anthropomorphic animals and simplistic good vs. evil morality will speak to middle-school readers but not adults." - PW.
