Publishers Weekly has published a delightful review for “Did You Hear That?” by Antonio Vicente; illustrated by Miguel Ordóñez. "Out in the world, names of sounds abound--the 'whoooooosh' of wind in the trees, the 'bzzzzz bzzzzz' of a bee, and the 'wee-woo wee-woo' of an ambulence--before the day comes full circle with the 'mwaaah' of an after-dinner kiss from Mom... poster-like drawings by Ordóñez distill familiar activities into colorful toy-like shapes, conjuring up a world that's a movable audio feast."
