"Ο Νίκος Μαθιουδάκης και ο Μάνος Μπονάνος συστήνουν στους μικρούς αναγνώστες τους Ελληνες ποιητές με έναν παιχνιδιάρικο και ευρηματικό τρόπο, ξεφεύγοντας από τη δασκαλοκεντρική θεωρία της ποίησης και μετατρέποντας τα παιδιά σε απαιτητικούς αναγνώστες. Η υπέροχη εικονογράφηση της Αγγελικής Μπόζου πλαισιώνει με άρτιο τρόπο την αφήγηση της ζωής και του έργου των Ελλήνων ποιητών, προσδίδοντας στη σειρά μια πιο σύγχρονη ματιά."

– Τόνια Βάθη, Ελεύθερος Τύπος

"Δύο εξαίρετα βιβλία που επιτρέπουν στους μικρούς ή και μεγάλους αναγνώστες να μυηθούν στο έργο των σπουδαίων Ελλήνων, να διαβάσουν με όποιον τρόπο επιθυμούν τα βιβλία, καθώς η δομή δεν είναι κλασική, γραμμική, αλλά αντιθέτως διαθέτουν ένα παιγνιώδες (όχι αφελές αλλά άρτια μελετημένο) στήσιμο."

– Πέπη Νικολοπούλου, EλCulture
