Media Reviews
Luscious eco-fable -- Paul Gravett A delightful story, with feisty, interesting characters all told in a wonderfully colourful and gentle style -- Richard Forbidden Planet The dramatic illustrations of this powerful graphic novel convey the tension of a world in which a prophesy looks horribly likely to come true -- Julia Eccleshare Love Reading 4 Kids Kate Brown's artwork in Spider Moon stands out with her unusual but delightful page layouts coupled with her use of colours ... It shows just how much of a young talent its creator is and it tantalises us not just with how Bekka's story may continue but also with what else Kate Brown may produce in the future Down The Tubes An engaging and promising read -- Melissa Hyland Bear Alley
