Huge fun. -- Armadillo, Autumn 00 A comprehensive collcetion of poems for children to enjoy, think about, and ultimately by reassured about their personal fears -- Parents News July 2000 Helen Dunmore and Kaye Umansky lead a parade of living poets, while David Roberts' bug-eyed, colour illustrations are effectively wild and whacky. -- Junior Education, Jun 01
