Return offers straight shots of pleasure. - The New York Times Book Review

This breathless finale to Becker's Journey trilogy (Journey, 2013; Quest, 2014) takes readers back to the intricate interior of an alternate world where crayons wield power. The father and child's mutual adventure unspools silently but with urgency. Readers remember the dad's distraction, which started both this book and the trilogy itself. When cave paintings depict the dad as the hero, casting out the villain, hearts swell and eyes well. A fantastic final leg to a reading journey that altered, expanded, and enriched the landscape of children's literature—and surely many young people's lives. - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

In a bravura finish to the trio of wordless tales that began with 2013's Journey, Caldecott honoree Becker brings still more.
