`I challenge you to find a sillier story than this picture book by
Matty Long. [...] You only realise quite how boring most books for
the very young are when you come across one that breaks the mould -
or, I should say, the ice.'
Children's Book of the Week - The Times

`
I'm not sure who will get more enjoyment out of this one - the
'toddlers' billed as its target audience or those older
readers/adults who are the book's mediators to the very young.'

inventive and super silly.''
