About the Author:
Holly was brought up in beautiful Dumfries & Galloway, where living on a farm nurtured a fascination and love of animals, which continues to feed her work as an artist and illustrator today. Since graduating from Edinburgh School of Art in 2003, Holly has been published by Walker Books and HarperCollins Children's Books, and now she joins Nosy Crow. Holly lives and works in Edinburgh with her husband, young daughter and her Dalmatian - a great source of inspiration!
Review:
Comical, partying guinea pigs who encounter one mishap after another allow readers to count down from 10 to one.... Loaded with personality, the adorable rodents take the party by storm, suffering tummy aches, tantrums and balloon mishaps but, ultimately, celebrating their friendship... Countdown to the next rereading.
—Kirkus Reviews
Like an Agatha Christie for toddlers, Surplice uses ingenuity and variety to get rid of her characters (gently) one by one... Surplice differentiates the guinea pigs with capes, tutus, and other accessories (all wear brightly colored party hats) to aid children with counting; the pigs and their brightly colored toys, gift bags, and other party fare pop against the white backdrops. As energetic and entertaining as a party full of higgledy-piggledy toddlers.
—Publishers Weekly
Endearing guinea pigs are stand-ins for the youngest listeners, who will practice counting from ten to one and back again with this bright, cheerfully illustrated, and delightful romp
—School Library Journal
A lively and especially cute counting book.
