Shelf Awareness

Andreasen illustrates in a style distinct from, yet complementary to, Schulz’s.
Publishers Weekly

A charming picture book story. . . . While very highly recommended for family, daycare center, preschool, elementary school, and community library picture book collections, parents, teachers and librarians will appreciate that 'Sparky & Spike' includes a biographical note, as well as archival photographs of Sparky and Spike, and a letter Charles Schulz wrote to the book's illustrator, Dan Andreasen, when Andreasen was a boy.
