The word classic is often overused, but in this case I feel that it is thoroughly deserved

One of the great charms of this book is in the depiction of the characters and following them through the story

Of Thee I Sing is a beautiful hardback picture book that celebrates the potential within each of us to pursue our dreams and forge our own paths

This simple tale is great fun for the younger crowd. There's just the right amount of adventure, a suggestion of disaster, a reassuring rescue, and a great deal of love and care

Reminiscent of Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar . . . More please

There is something about snot which intrigues at this age and Morris the Mankiest Monster provides plenty of toenails, pustules and other delights from a disgusting but friendly monster

Children will absolutely love it - I will leave adults to make up their own minds . . . The illustrations are wonderful - full of grisly details that children will adore, and they will delight in reading the story to you. Great fun!

Any book that has an embossed green bogey on the cover has already got my vote. This frankly vile book is a complete and utter joy from beginning to end . . . A revoltingly good treat for young children

Sarah McIntyre certainly does not hold back with her illustrations of Giles Andreae's hilarious rhyming words . . . Sarah's illustrations are all beautifully drawn, with an incredible attention to detail that will have children poring lovingly over the pages

Comes across as an infant Fungus the Bogeyman in the sort of humourous rhymes of text Giles Andreae does so well
