"Katherine Janus Kahn s collage illustrations, reminiscent of Eric Carle s work, are simple and sweet... For children unfamiliar with the activities or significance of the Day of Atonement, Rouss s account provides clearly stated facts and a believable story about how even a well-intentioned little boy might cause the kind of turmoil he d want his parents and the spiders who live with them to forgive him for." -- The New York Times

"The focus is fully on the meaning of Yom Kippur, making this title both more concise and more powerful. The ideas of making poor choices and making amends are shown in a developmentally appropriate way, and the depiction of the custom of formally asking forgiveness is emotionally satisfying." -- School Library Journal
