Reviews

Guaranteed to make children giggle… will delight children who will revel in the absurdity and cheekiness of it all.

Readers will enjoy returning to the beginning, taking in all the illustrations, and laughing at the impossibility of all the happenings… Lots of fun in both text and pictures.
