Critics Review
Hopwood works his storytelling magic and picture perfect talents on this heartwarming tale as the adorable Cedric and Boo discover that friendship really is the key to happiness! – Pam Norfolk * Lancashire Post *
This clever story for 3+ year olds shows readers how Boo works out that friendship and play matter more than keeping things perfect. It’s ideal to read and discuss with preschool children. * School Reading List *
With colourful and dynamic illustrations, this is a sweet picture book that toddlers will enjoy immensely. The lesson – that new shoes shouldn’t come between friendship – isn’t exactly subtle, but it’s more than made up for with an engaging narrative arc and the lovely relationship between Boo and Cedric. – Prudence Wade * Press Association *
