What They're Saying

Critics Review

A lively, funny story that should delight and reassure many children who are worriers themselves * Jacqueline Wilson *
Genuinely touching and wonderfully funny. A total delight of a, what I call, book. * Miranda Hart *
An endearing story that will have worriers everywhere cheering for this unlikely hero * Mother Daughter Bookclub *
This book was even better than the first Wilf book, because it was more exciting. But just so you know, I did like the first one! I would recommend this book to anyone really, anyone who likes pirates and likes exciting adventures. And also people who liked the first Wilf book. – Guardian Young Reviewer * Guardian Children’s Book Site *
With fantastic attention to all the funny details that make Wilf’s life (and his nemesis, Alan) so worrisome, this is a truly laugh-out-loud read that also has a reassuring message for children who worry about the world – Anna Loudon * Book Trust *
Funny, imaginative and adventurous…anyone should read this to turn their frown upside down. * Guardian Children’s Book Reviews *
