What They're Saying
Critics Review
“The story is told in simple rhymes that marry well to the wonderful illustrations with their close detail, friendly characters and lovely clear colours on paper so silky, it invites small fingers to touch. The illustration of the mouse inside the deep purple clock with her small golden light is totally enchanting, as the book itself enchants.” * Armadillo *“Super for bedtime sharing and first steps in reading.” * Carousel *“A perfect story to share to highlight the importance of how we are stronger working as a team as we all have our own strengths.” * Books for Boys *“A delightful rhyming tale of looking beyond our differences, friendship and working together.” * The School Librarian *
