Critics Review
“The most exciting book for this age that I have read in yonks.” * The Times *
“A warmhearted story…Illustrations by Axel Scheffler perfectly capture the droll humour of the stories.” * Books for Keeps *
“Full colour illustrations by Axel Scheffler perfectly capture the droll humour of the stories and this is one of the most enjoyable books I’ve read this year” – Andrea Reece * LoveReading4Kids *
“The jokes sing and we had to stop several times during the story so my giggling six-year-old boy could wipe his eyes dry” * The Times, Best Children’s Books of 2019 *
“Alex Rühle has created a warm-hearted, smart children’s book which easily lends itself to reading aloud or on one’s own. There is a lot of wordplay (not least because Zippel likes to rhyme) and impish slapstick. The brightly coloured comicbook style of Gruffalo-artist Axel Scheffler is a perfect match to the text. A story about family and everyday problems, friendship, courage and a very special little ghost” * Donaukurier *
