Reviews
On each spread that introduces Nick Sharratt’s endearing characters, Sally Symes’ simple rhyming text provides a ‘wiggle wiggle’ and a fun, sometimes onomatopoeic phrase to join in with.
Red Reading Hub
An interactive board book for tinies enjoying Halloween. It features holes to wiggle your fingers through, creating the legs of a little witch, wolf, cat, pumpkin, spider, ghost, bat, and vampire in Nick Sharratt’s bold, appealing style.
Sunday Times
This delightful little board book for Halloween will appeal to all pre-school children.
Left on the Shelf
I strongly recommend this deceptively simple picture book which uses Sharratt’s distinctively bold colours and uncluttered style throughout. There is just enough detail on each page to encourage a child to use some new vocabulary without overwhelming the very young reader.
