Media Reviews
Preposterously outrageous and hilarious series of transformations, captured by Ross's brilliant illustrations as Willis's verse romps along to its warm and touching conclusion. * Daily Mail *
Hilarious illustrations... match Jeanne Willis's ebullient rhyming text perfectly. * Julia Eccleshare, Lovereading BOTM *
Driving rhyme and amusing resolution and Ross' illustrations are the perfect complement. Just begs to be read aloud, buy, buy, buy! * Peters eGazette, Books of the Week *
Lots of laugh-out-loud moments and a very sweet ending -- Fiona Noble * The Bookseller *
Wonderful illustrations... humour and a lovely ending. We all really enjoyed this. * Little Booktastic Blog *
