Critics Review
The author’s naturalistic paintings are superb, brilliantly expressive… a cautionary tale about the dangers posed to wildlife by balloons floating free, as well as a powerful story of believing in oneself. * Red Reading Hub *
This is a beautiful story to share in an EYFS or KS1 classroom or at home for bedtime. Little ones will cuddle up with their own parents and think about times they’ve found something difficult but overcame it with strength from their family. * Scope for Imagination *
