Reviews

Funny family adventure. Brilliant for emerging readers, and tells a satisfying story.

The Bookseller, Fiona Noble

Delightful family story. The humour is just right… perfectly enhanced by Tony Ross’ comic illustrations.

Marilyn Brocklehurst, Bookseller

Funny, satisfying story for emerging readers

Andrea Reece, Lovereading BOTM

Charmingly funny book moves along at the hurried pace you’d expect, making the brief pauses and reflections all the more rewarding.
