Media Reviews
A lovely, slightly quirky little adventure story. -- Ruth Ng * TheBookbag.co.uk *
Readers will be totally caught up in the story... [it] would merit another book. Here's hoping! -- Simon Smith * armadillomagazine.com *
A very funny, gripping story with large print and a few pictures to help newly confident readers. * Primary Times *
A great little chapter book with a highly imaginary storyline. It's an easy and compulsive read... Six out of six! -- Louise Turner * Families Magazine South West *
A super little book with excellent pictures. * Carousel *
