Media Reviews
'More than a hint of folklore as well as pure fantasy. This is a very accomplished first novel and will be enjoyed by the more sophisticated 10-12 age group.' -- Jim Collins, Worcester Evening News 'A delightful tale of a quest set in a fantasy Spanish landscape. Enables young readers to feel they are making the journey of discovery alongside Tomas.' -- Armadillo, Autumn 2000 'A distinctly European folktale.' -- The Guardian, 5 July 2000 'A lovely story. It is a book I will read again.' -- Lucy Pope, age 7, Education Otherwise
