The illustrations are wonderful… full of comic touches and lots of detail… great fun. - Bookbag

Playful… anarchic… wicked sense of humour… great fun. - Teach Primary

Alex’s fantastic illustrations bring this great caper to life, a brilliant new series for newly confident readers. - The Guardian

A really rollickingly good start to a new book series that’s absolutely bound to become a huge hit. Foxy and Alphonse, destined for greatness! - readitdaddy

Packed full of wacky situations, slapstick humour, outrageous plans and ludicrous behaviour from baddies you love to hate, The Cunning Plan will keep young readers entertained till the very last page - librarymice

The author is a comparative newcomer to picture books; on this evidence, he should go far. - The Independent on Sunday

Chaos prevails in this very funny story… perfect for those beginning to gain confidence in their reading. - Primary Times
