Teach Primary (October 2008) 'Written in an accessible style with humorous illustrations, they are great for engaging reluctant readers as well as educating them about a historical period.' Junior Education Plus (December 2008) 'This is just one in a fun, interactive series of books focusing on what kids really want to be when they grow up...' Teach Primary (Volume 2.8) "Her [Helen Greathead] Tough Job series invites the reader to put themselves in the place of a knight, fighter pilot, gladiator and pirate." Junior Education Plus+ (April 2009)
