Media Reviews
Pete Johnson [is] one of our best contemporary children's humourists * TES *
A cleverly crafed fast-flowing comedy and the more subtle lessons in growing up and trying to change people won't be lost either * Carousel *
A lovely, funny book which explores the ideas of misfits and labelling people in a wonderfully entertaining way * The School Librarian *
Full of comedy, this book has a light touch that can be so difficult to acheive * Teaching & Learning *
An excruciatingly funny comedy -- Amanda Craig * The Times *
