Brims with Beano-esque humour

Gloriously chaotic

Much more toilet humour, many more flatulence (and other) jokes; very clever and very funny. Read it with a six- to eight-year-old you know soon and you'll both enjoy the experience

The book is full of great illustrations that let me imagine the characters a lot better . . . I laughed a lot when I was reading this book

Lots of surprises and plot twists in this excellent, really gripping story

It's wonderful to find an adventure book that provides perspectives on the organic and musical worlds that many readers may find intriguing and enlightening
