Críticas:
With its fast pace and abundance of laughs, Mac's adventure is a great page-turner. * Quill & Quire * This slightly off-beat romp carries a whiff of steampunk, travelogue, and "Bridget does Paris" new-age style, all rolled into one.... The semi-fantastical events work to keep readers' interest and give a coordinated alternate view of a city that has been marketed as "McParis" perhaps once too often. * Resource Links * Mac in the City of Light is an action-packed tale that gives young readers an intriguing glimpse of Parisian life and culture. It features numerous colourful characters, including Rudee Daroo with his great passion for beets and his odd but amusing sayings, and villains who are satisfyingly malicious. * Canadian Materials magazine *
