    Winner! 2019 National Outdoor Book Awards, Children's Category Wall Street Journal: April 12, 2019 "Children unfamiliar with the early environmentalist who co-founded the Sierra Club, went camping with Teddy Roosevelt, and helped established national parks at Yosemite and the Grand Canyon will find much to admire in this exuberant, affectionate portrait." STARRED Review - School Library Journal: "John Muir comes to life in this affectionate graphic format biography of the 19th-century environmentalist, inventor, and adventurer. . . .Goldsmith's charming cartoons, with black line drawings and washes of color, match the exuberant story. . . . the result is a quick but deeply personal glimpse at a legendary figure." San Francisco Chronicle "This kid-friendly homage extols the passion and purpose of a green pioneer." Horn Book Magazine: "This creatively rendered biography-in-comics-format of John Muir (1838-1914) is filled with the naturalist's adventures. . . . Vibrant spreads in the chapter transitions and interludes capture the stunning landscapes in which Muir found his purpose. A timeline, a glossary, sources, and a 'Parks Are for You' page are included among the back matter." STARRED Review - Foreword Reviews: "Muir's wonder at the natural world translates perfectly. . . . The beauty of Wildheart is that it delivers its message effectively and enjoyably for both children and adults." Publishers Weekly: "The first-person voice adds a lively immediacy to the spare text, which is extended in Goldsmith's panels, rendered in thick, uncluttered lines washed with watercolors that evoke the natural world that Muir loved so much." A Junior Library Guild Selection 2019 Eureka Honor Book from the California Reading Association! The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books: /b> "If a reader's previous introduction to nineteenth-century naturalist and pioneering conservationist John Muir has involved only a gray-bearded man spouting tributes to nature, or President Teddy Roosevelt being shuttled around California on a much-publicized camping trip, this delightful Scottish graphic novel import will restore excitement to the biographical details and foster appreciation for this eccentric spokesperson for the Great Outdoors."
