"Remy learns all about sustainable tourism and there are actually some solid tips for such in the book... I would love to read these to students and discuss not only Austria[,] but ecological tourism as a whole. The artwork is very engaging. I hope that this book will be part of a series, since the author hinted at such."

"A beautifully charming book teaching little ones about respecting the environment whilst travelling. The lessons taught in this book are apt for both children and adults alike... My 3 year old loved the illustrations...The detail is fantastic. The topic of the book is one that we don't see often for small children and is a breath of fresh air."
