I really appreciate Karen's comment about finding "the right person." In reviewing not only picture books, but children's books in general, how often do "mismatchups" actually occur between reviewer and book? As some here have expressed, a book beloved by one reviewer may be rejected by another. Or out of many positive reviews there's a sour one. How much credence can we give the "thumbs down" review?
