"I dig the funny, charming craziness of Rhymes With Orange." —Matt Groening, creator, The Simpsons
"Oh! Genius! Hilary has uncanny insight and an enviably deft pen; though really: Cartooning? The lengths some people go to in order to avoid useful employment." —Sandra Boynton, cartoonist and children's book author
"If you are unfamiliar with Rhymes with Orange, order this book post haste. It will make you smile and laugh and start copying panels for your corkboard." —Shelf Awareness
