Media Reviews
'One of the best and most perceptive writers for young people' -- The Guardian * The Guardian *
'This is a delightful story written in big print, and suitable for young readers. It is simply a joy to sit down and read. There is lightness of spirit and a sense of fun that is just what the young reader needs.' -- Books Ireland * Books Ireland *
'... the story of Lowry Lynch and his long hair told in a wacky new style and quirkily illustrated by Donald Teskey, this also is ideal to get fledgling readers up and running.' -- The Irish Times * The Irish Times *
