Critics Review

An adorable tale of friendship and daring to be yourself. * Waterstones *
Ross’s telling is thoroughly engaging and young children will adore Andy and the other ants, each of which Sarah Warburton manages to make different with spectacles, eyebrows, moustaches etc. Every turn of the page invites readers to linger long and enjoy all that’s going on […] This a party children will want to go to many times over. * Red Reading Hub *
Another top-notch story from Ross Montgomery and Sarah Warburton […] Fun, colourful and a celebration of friendship! * My Shelves Are Full *
Featured, April Children’s Previews * The Bookseller *

The ants were all so thoughtful and considerate of one another.
The double page spread of all the ants heading to Andy’s party is our fave!
We loved how Andy and the ants triumphed over the intrusion of the anteater.
