Critics Review
Writing for children that’s of a very high standard. The illustrations by Ruth Rivers are a perfect accompaniment to the text and often give valuable clues where help with the vocabulary might be needed. It’s also a book that children will return to because it’s fun, interesting and has a good plot. Highly recommended – particularly for any child who isn’t yet ready for a full-length book. * *
