Media Reviews
An off-the-wall lesson about the value of facts... Children will laugh, be encouraged to read and be glad to Know Better. -- Nicolette Jones * Sunday Times *
A new favourite in our house... full of wit and exuberance, perfect for visually sophisticated modern children. * Irish Independent *
OHora's scratchy, comically stiff figures and poker-faced humor beautifully embody the tale's essential absurdity. And the lemmings' final victory affirms that progress is possible even for the terminally silly. * Publishers Weekly, starred review *
Delightfully imparts the joy and discovery of reading-and many chuckles and guffaws. * Kirkus *
An absolute joy to read * BookTrust *
