Reception.
"Booklist", in a review of "Albidaro and the Mischievous Dream", wrote "The guardians seem patched onto the story, and the kids' protective teddy bears are too cute and cloying. The fun here is the wild dream of rebellion, the cacophony of animals silly enough to act like people, and the satisfying return to order.". "The Horn Book Magazine" called it a "convoluted and unbelievable tale" and wrote "Pinkney's artwork is as lively and attractive as ever, but it doesn't rescue the poorly written story."
"Albidaro and the Mischievous Dream" has also been reviewed by "Publishers Weekly", "Kirkus Reviews", "School Library Journal", and "The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books".
