““Expert wry humour and striking graphics””The Bookseller, The Bookseller
““A board book on the outside – albeit with a minimalist jacket and stylishly curved corners – open it up and Square is beguiling, simple and amusing. […] Inquisitive, witty an framed by peppermint-green and soft inky scribbles, awash with intelligence and depth, it’s just lovely.””Women's Way Ireland, Women's Way Ireland

“<b>“Barnett and Klassen are a perfect team to deliver a smart and funny book that manages to have sophisticated connotations about the creation, intention and reception of art, as well as reassuring children about their own artistic development.” </b>”BookTrust, BookTrust
