Critics Review
This is a touching story that had me laughing out loud. I highly recommend this book, it is so much fun!
Jam-packed tales full of hilarity, excitement and fun … Perfect for all young readers looking for a thoroughly engaging read. - LoveReading4Kids
This is a brilliant book in an excellent series, I would recommend it for boys and girls from 8 upwards, but teachers or parents could read it aloud to even younger children. I hope Sally Gardner will write more in this series. - GuardianAbout The Author
