There is so much detail in (Quentin Blake’s) illustrations that each time you look at them you notice something new.” – Jo Heffer * The Bookbag * “Combining the writing talent of John Yeoman and the wonderful illustrations of Quentin Blake is inspired! This book should be in every home and school library.” * Parents In Touch * “Blake’s wonderful illustrations mean that children would want to return to this book again and again. A lovely story.” * EYE * “The nocturnal shenanigans make this an especially appealing bedtime read-aloud, and the lengthier narrative will tempt and challenge adventurous beginning readers.” * Booklist, USA *
