Review of On the Loose in Boston, at Boston Mamas.com: Not only are the illustrations awesome, Stossel engages the reader with challenging searches for the Franklin Park Zoo animals artistically hidden among her drawings, and she entertains us with a rhyming plot that tickles the tongue with wonderful vocabulary.

Reader review of On the Loose in New York City, at Amazon We bought this book two weeks ago, and our son has been asking for it before bed every night. He loves poring over the book, discovering animals in all sorts of quirky places, and talking about parts of the city he recognizes, or wants to go see. The book presents the city in a fun, appealing light, with colorful and engaging (and amazingly detailed) pictures.
