Reviews

Inspiring, lovingly drawn

—— The Sunday Times

[Alfie] seems drawn from life, as ever

—— The Children's Bookseller

The story has comedy and pathos . . . The illustrations are enchanting - cosy, warm and also very familiar

For many children this is a very familiar world

For toddlers just begining to discover the fascination of everyday life, Shirley Hughes's classic Alfie series is a must

—— Irish Sunday Independent

A glorious antidote to boneheaded machismo . . . and a visual feast of wit and boundless imagination. A gem

The retro superhero Traction Man is back for another madcap domestic adventure . . . All the excellent details in the pictures make this a hugely entertaining story from award-winning author/illustrator
