The absorbing world tinged with magic realism will appeal to children of different ages because of the author's deadpan humour * Glasgow Herald * The quirkiness and eccentricity of the characterisation is absolute genius. It is pure and high-spririted escapism, together with enough bottom jokes to keep every child in class laughing for at least a week -- Jill Murphy * thebookbag.co.uk *
