Fantastic!

A great book - my 7 year old is fascinated about being a stealth ninja - Cheers to the author. More, More. I think your family will love this exceptionally cute book.

Happy Days are Here Again!

this is such a delight! wow! i love the art and i love the story. it really feels different. i bought it for my nephew and he pointed at the pictures and laughed out loud-- straight through EIGHT! readings.

This book kicks!

My favorite part is when Wink the ninja decides the curtains in his Grandma's house would make a good Ninja costume. So funny! I love how well the collage illustrations show expressions. They are perfect for the story. Wink, you are one of a kind! LOVE IT!

Yahoo for Wink!

The first time I read this book to my children and finished the last page, my 3-year-old didn't hesitate: "Again," he said. "I love that Wink," my 6-year-old added. "She did all that art herself?" my 9-year-old asked of J.C. Phillipps, Wink's author and illustrator. Wink's story really does have something for everyone--humor, a sympathetic main character, stealthy ninja moves, fresh and engaging art, and reassurance that kids can (and should) be who they want to be. Kudos to J.C. Phillipps for creating a story that I look forward to reading well after after the bazillionth request from my kids!

Wink is Wonderful

This story tickled my funny bone and made me laugh! My grandchildren asked me to read it over and over. They asked lots of questions about the pictures. I loved the wonderful collage illustrations. The attention to detail is amazing. I thought this was an outstanding book for all ages.
