"How does an imaginary friend feel before he's been imagined? In Santat'ssweet, mind-bending gumdrop of a tale, Beekle lives on a rainbow-hued island, 'hoping for his turn to be picked by a child.' Eventually, like Max in'Where the Wild Things Are,' he takes to the seas and soon lands in the real world - which looks a lot like Manhattan. Though this island seems awfully drab, Beekle and his friend find each other at last. She's everything he's ever dreamed of, and the feeling is mutual."
―The New York Times Book Review
“當一個幻想朋友在他被想象到之前會是什么感覺呢？在桑塔特看來，那個幻想朋友就像一顆甜蜜的橡皮糖，小白住在彩虹色的島上，希望能被一個真實的小孩領走”最后，他決定自己去尋找。他來到了真實世界，它看起來很像曼哈頓。雖然這個島似乎非常單調，但是小白還是和他的真實朋友見面了。這正是他所有的夢想，而這種感覺是相互的。”——《紐約時報》書評
Dan Santat is one of the hardest working people in the industry today.And while his immense talent was always evident,Beekletakes his artistry to a new level.The story (which is just bursting at the seams with charm) begins on an island of colorful creatures, each waiting to be imagined by a special child and thus transported to the real world.... As with all great books,Beeklehas an air of inevitability about it. As if somewhere out there is an island of perfect stories just waiting for the right person to come along and imagine it into being.We should all be grateful that Santat, with his brilliant use of color and humor, was here to bringBeekleto life.
―The Huffington Post
丹·桑塔特是行業中最努力的人。他的巨大的才華展現在了他的新作Beekle（《小白找朋友》）這部書中。這個故事中一個幻想孩子，為了尋找他的伙伴，來到現實世界…正如所有偉大的書籍那樣，主人公Beekle（小白）的性格好像我們呼吸的空氣那樣熟悉。我們就是在某處等待著一個真正和自己匹配的人。我們都應該感謝桑塔特，他的色彩和獨有的幽默，把Beekle領進了我們的生活。——《赫芬頓郵報》
* "Santat's attention to detail in the mixed-media illustrations shares a child's eye for laughter and movement on full-bleed spreads with strategically placed text. Gazes of wonderment, broad smiles, and changes in perspective ensure an easy transition from page to page...Like Beekle's new friend, there's something here that feels just right as an "unimaginary" friendship creates a joyous, recognizable bond. A terrific addition to any library."―School Library Journal(starred review)
“Beekle是一個戴著皇冠的白色軟糖，和其他幻想朋友們生活在一個夢幻般的島嶼上，看到他的同伴一個接一個地被領走，Beekle失去了信心，他想象著那個能給他一個特別的名字的真實朋友，于是他開始了一場“不可思議的冒險”去尋找他的朋友……歡迎，Beekle。認識你很高興”。——《學校圖書館》
"Beekle (a crowned white gumdrop of lovable cuteness) lives on a fantastic island with other creatures "waiting to be imagined by a real child." After seeing his companions leave, one by one, Beekle loses faith that he will ever "be picked and given a special name," and so he does "the unimaginable" and ventures forth to find his friend...Welcome, Beekle. It's nice to know you."―Kirkus Reviews
"This story would comfort children looking for new friends and would also encourage children to reach out to someone different."―LMC
