Reviews

Praise for You Can't Take an Elephant on the Bus: delightfully brought to life with David Tazzymans quirky illustrations and a jaunty rhyming text. You will laugh out loud as tigers ride on trains, whales ride on bikes and giraffes go on aeroplanes * Publishers Association *
The bold, caricature style illustrations, rhyming couplets, and varying font styles add to the humour * Practical Pre-School *
Everything that you could wish for in a picture book, humour, ridiculous situations and imagination stimulating scenarios. Quite frankly, this is picture book writing and illustration at its very best * Being a Mummy *
David Tazzymans scratchy style is a great match to this scatty surprising picture book * Books for Keeps *
Chaotic, crazy, fabulously funny and full of humorously energetic illustrations, this is a book that promises to evoke giggles of glee from readers fortunate enough to come across it * Eye, Eye *
