KIRKUS says: "Phil the groundhog fights nerves on his family’s biggest day of the year. The night before Groundhog Day, Phil is too worried to sleep. His family has high expectations for him tomorrow—what if he messes up when he makes his big announcement? With some assistance from little sister Marla, however, Phil pulls it off. A sweet and candid representation of anxiety, with a creative twist."

​

Publisher Weekly says: "Digitally collaged images by Woodruff (Once Upon a Winter Day) contrast the snugness, both emotional and physical, of the groundhog family’s lives with more elaborate scenes of Phil’s frantic state of mind, pulling readers along to a revelation that asking for help can make a big moment—and an asker—all the better."
