Sallie Lowenstein, publisher of the Old Books, Young Readers newsletter and owner of the publishing company Lion Stone Books, wrote that the illustrations of Giant Island are "fabulous, imaginative and unexpected." She also wrote, "I love the language and I love that although it about a magical place, it is also about the relationship between children and their grandparent and the wisdom of older people.
