Media Reviews

Well-loved classic... Little ones will love (and recognise all too soon!) the oft-repeated 'Not now, Bernard', leaving older children and their parents to appreciate the black humour and static, expressive illustrations * Guardian, The Best New Children's Books supplement *
Very funny, written very dryly and is a sobering lesson to all us busy parents who sometimes get distracted! * Lucy Owen, Western Mail Cardiff *
Opened my eyes to what was possible with children's writing. Helped me realise that nothing needs to be taboo - its all in how you treat the material. * Sophie Mckenzie, Lovereading Guest Editor *
An Andersen classic. Hilarious cautionary tale. * Michael Rosen, Lovereading Guest Editor *
This is a true classic! * The Good Book Guide *
