"A glorious poem, matched with bold, folk-art illustrations - a memorable and catchy verse story." - The Guardian "In this delightful story set in India, the typography and placement of words becomes an art form in itself." - The School Librarian "Five stars - for the sheer fun the author has packed into its pages - has that deliciously infectious and contagious feel to it - this is a book that will be read and reread." - The Deccan Herald
