Media Reviews
The illustrations by Carl Pearce are outstanding, some of the best we've seen in a children's book ... The darkness is presented as an ocean, just as it seems to Rana, and the scenes of the night-time snack exude warmth and love. Together with it's calm ending, this makes for a perfect bedtime story Small Print Books Nice lyrical test and unusual illustrations ... An original approach to fear of the dark Letterbox Library
