Review:

"If you're a fan of `odd couple on a road trip' movies, then you have hit the jackpot with Simone Lia's new offering. [...] warm and funny story [...] The story generates genuine laugh-out-loud moments and, alongside the highly appealing illustrations, would make a brilliant read-aloud story for children." * The School Librarian * "This was overall a good book! So good, that when I put my book down to go to bed, I was thinking that what I read was exciting." * First News reader review * "Its so hilarious, funny and super sweet. This is a must-read book for every single bookworm out there. Even if you don't really like reading, I really recommend everyone to read this book. Honestly this is one of my personal favourite books ever!" * zaparents.com * "[...] a paperback with illustrations that's the perfect hilarity-inducer for any primary school-age child (particularly in the six-to-nine-year-old bracket) but which, quite frankly, would also put a smile on even the Scroogiest grown-up face this Christmas. [...] charmingly absurd [...]" * Bath Life *
