Critics Review

With its themes of friendship and community building, it was so good to see Monti finding his own talent in the latter. Sylvie Kantorovitz effectively uses a muted colour palette, simple lines and patterning throughout presenting her tale in graphic novel format for younger readers. * Red Reading Hub *
For younger readers, Monti and Leo are such a brilliant pair of characters. Both kind and thoughtful… Quite short for a graphic novel (80 pages), this is perfect for readers in Year 2 upwards. In addition to the lovely story, the illustrations are gorgeous and coloured in ice cream pastel tones, which add to the gentle, cosy feel of the book and will ensure that this is very popular with those picking it up. I thoroughly enjoyed it and am hoping that there will be many more adventures for Monti and Leo to come. * World’s Smallest Library *
