"This simple yet engaging adventure tale wsill amuse young readers and give them a taste of Dick King-Smith's unique, often amusing, narrative style" * Through the Looking Glass *
"An unusual theme that gives rise to a great deal of humour . . . The illustrations are jaunty and the writing uncluttered and unsentimental" * Nursery World *
"Told with the exuberant brand of humour we associate with Dick King-Smith . . . An excellent buy" -- Jack Ousbey * Carousel *
