Media Reviews
Beautiful to look at: big-size type, art-filled (glossy) pages, with comedy and class...satisfyingly special. * The Independent *
Perfect for sharing. * Carousel *
The Ross-view of nursery lore combines wit, style and a dazzling use of line and colour with a wild comedy. * Observer *
The illustrations combine Ross's customary lively, humorous images with historical detail. This is an enormously valuable and entertaining too to help families and schools keep alive a tradition that is under constant danger of vanishing from popular knowledge. * Booktrust, Best Book Guide *
