Take a world soaked in near-future strangeness and complexity . . . Add a  beautiful alien artifact that turns out to be the spearpoint of a very  dangerous, very ancient invasion . . . Hotwire with wisdom and wonder . .  . Existence is as urgent and as relevant as anything by Stross or Doctorow, but with the cosmic vision of Bear or Benford. Brin is back

&#8220;Woodson&#8217;s (Each Kindness) gentle, unpretentious writing and Ransome&#8217;s eloquent artwork breathe life into this story of a close-knit African-American family and their pursuit of a better life. . . . The chronicle of a homely object in an age of disposables and the sense of place Woodson and Ransome evoke make this an especially strong and vibrant fictive memoir.&#8221; &mdash; Publishers Weekly (starred review)&#8220;Expressive oil paintings illustrate the clean, well-cadenced text in scenes that include well-researched period details. . . . There&#8217;s no doubt of the warmth and strength of the family ties that bind these individuals together.&#8221; &mdash; Booklist&#8220;The rope becomes a symbol of family tradition and continuity against a backdrop of historical and social change. Woodson&#8217;s understated but eloquent text gives specific details of one family&#8217;s experience, while Ransome&#8217;s rich oil paintings provide historical context.&#8221; &mdash; The Horn Book&#8220;A warm family saga of a household united by love, pride and an uncommon heirloom. The repetition of the title in a nursery-rhyme style will resonate with young listeners. Ransome&#8217;s vivid, full-bleed, double-page&#8211;spread oil paintings create an upbeat, welcoming vista of rural South Carolina and urban Brooklyn. . . . A quiet affirmation of a strong and close-knit family that, along with so many other African-Americans, found a better life as part of the Great Migration.&#8221; &mdash; Kirkus Reviews&#8220;Spare, eloquent. . . . A beautifully told family tale about a loving, close-knit African-American family over several decades. . . . The language is deliberate and lyrical. . . . Landscapes indicative both of the changing geography and the passing of time . . . remarkable, with light falling on faces at the perfect angle and facial features carrying abundant emotion. Young listeners . . . [will] be drawn to this warm and hope-filled tale.&#8221; &mdash; The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books&#8220;A poignant, realistic, generational story. Woodson masterfully weaves a tale of an African American family&#8217;s move from the rural south to New York City. . . . Ransome&#8217;s beautifully rich oil paintings add depth and interest. . . . The perfect picture book to include in a study of The Great Migration. . . . An excellent tale to include in a study of family histories. It is a picture book to savor as a read-aloud.&#8221; &mdash; Library Media Connection
