Reviews

An amusing tale * TES *
The sheer daftness of the ideas will keep kids' attention clamped eagerly to every page * SHE Magazine *
Dick King-Smith needs no introduction and these two tales will win new fans . . . Would be suitable for early independent readers - but adults won't mind having them read to them either * The School Librarian *
