Review:
Sonia Benster believes it will ring true with young mothers; the characters are irresistible says Gail Harbour, whose personal favourite this is. The Children's Bookseller, Sept 2000 With plenty of flaps to lift, there's always a fun discovery around the corner. And children will love to predict what comes next. This must be one of the most beautifully illustrated children's books I have ever seen - absolutely enchanting! Junior Times, Jan 6, 2001 Children will love the characters, the illustrations are bright and amusing. A great book for counting, sequencing and above all sharing. Bedtime reading at its best. EYE,v.3 no.2, June 2001
