Critics Review
For the child worried about keeping up playground appearances, How to Be Cooler than Cool by Sean Taylor is a reminder that the coolest thing is to be yourself. * The Daily Telegraph *
Featured in The Bookseller’s May Previews 2022. * The Bookseller *
My 5 year really likes this book. He was laughing all the way through. The illustrations are nice. My boy loved looking at the pictures. – Parent * Toppsta *
How to be Cooler than Cool is a simple story with an important, positive message about self-image, told with lots of humour and colourful, engaging illustrations. The combination of striking slapstick images and accompanying colloquial language is funny and will appeal to young readers. Yet, the book gives clear messages about being ourselves, rather than projecting an image of something we are not. – Jacqueline * Just Imagine *
There was lots of laugh out loud moments and full on giggles, especially when the pig ended up with the sunglasses on his tail! I was asked to read 3 times in a row, which is the sign of a good book. A lovely message to just enjoy yourself and not try to play a part or be something you are not. Great bold illustrations that really complement the text. – Parent * Toppsta *
