Media Reviews
This is brilliantly structured so that it holds the interest when read aloud rather as a good joke before arriving at its punchline - Nick Sharratt's bright, simple pictures look almost as though an inspired child had produced them - and that may well be why children respond to them so warmly * Observer *
A subtle and clever anecdote - a highly sophisticated book. The narrative is strong, the characters are distinctive and well-drawn. The ending is a stroke of brilliance * Daily Telegraph *
Brilliantly witty * The School Librarian *
