Reception

School Library Journal gave a starred review of In Plain Sight, writing "The simple text is largely made up of the good-natured conversations that surround the game and reflect the warmth and joy that Sophie and Grandpa find in each other. Pinkney’s lush and lovely watercolors are by turns delicate, energetic, and effusive as he captures his engaging African American characters and their homey domicile."[1]

The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books wrote "Especially in connection with some thoughtful prompting, this may encourage kids to think about their own relatives in new ways, and it could be an interesting introduction to a foster grandparent program."[2]

In Plain Sight has also been reviewed by Booklist,[3] Common Sense Media,[4] The Horn Book Magazine,[5] and has received starred reviews from Kirkus Reviews,[6] and Publishers Weekly. [7]

It received a 2017 Coretta Scott King Award author honor[8]
