It's difficult to resist the charm of Jospeh Fipps, with his yellow boots and the teddybear he drags around!
Robert gives Joseph time and space to think (and sulk), giving full credence to ability of children to sort through complicated emotions on their ownand, sometimes, with help from a hulking, imaginary Mommy Walrus. -- STARRED REVIEW, Publishers Weekly With such a joyful debut gratitude is due to fabulous indie publisher Enchanted Lion Books for importing (and translating) the dynamic duo Stateside! -- Book Dragon A 5-year-old all filled up with feelings dreams of wings and walruses in this ruminative import. Kirkus Reviews
