"The simple text moves at a quick pace. Papanikolaou's dynamic illustrations are exciting and filled with action, and her round-eyed, large-headed characters are truly endearing, with the irrepressible and irresistible Monique leading the pack." - School Library Journal

"The story has snap and the illustrations of plucky Monique are adorable." - The Horn Book

"Monique is too unique for a school uniform. Her not so subtle attempts to subvert it with outlandish sunglasses, hair doohickeys, hats, nail polish and purses are shut down at every turn - until she gets colorful braces." - Kids Book Manager
