Reviews

Enormously satisfying.

—— The Guardian

There's just something so reassuring about Hughes' colourful drawings of the day-to-day activities that you know inside out . . . Words and pictures merge seamlessly . . . Hughes is a magical storyteller with an instinctive understanding of the mind of the pre-schooler . . . She makes the ordinary extraordinary

—— Guardian

Shirley Hughes is a national treasure

—— Philip Pullman

Text and artwork are both delightful and sympathetically balanced

—— British Book News

A brilliant and playful parody of an action-hero drama by quirky writer Mini Grey

—— Junior

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

—— Carousel

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
