Media Reviews
'Good for someone who has just learned to read and wants to tackle a real book'The Spectator
'An affectionate, lively adventure... will appeal to any child who's ever nagged for a pet'Mail on Sunday
' A delightful story... The characterization is good... The book has a satisfactory and happy ending.... The text is simple, with large print, and vocabulary which is not too demanding yet not too repetitive either. The illustrations add interest and some humour. This could be a popular book for upper infant children, or less able lower junior children'Junior Bookshelf
'A delightful story with pace and good characterisation. Corgi Pups are perfect for those readers just embarking on 'real' books'Books in Schools
