Short review

More fun and magic. . . .It's touch and go in this exciting follow-up to the Wee Free Men

Three stars out of five

Though ostensibly a child's book will be enjoyed by any fan of Pratchett's as it is written with his trade mark humour.

This is a gripping read

It's the kind of book adults will enjoy and be delighted for their children to read.

All ends well but not before the reader has been hurtled through a series of hilarious scenarios with a carefully devised blend of wit and the simple wisdom of a clear-cut moral line.

If you are only going to buy one book., this is the one to get!

A reliable treat for fans

A sharply humorous sequel to The Wee Free Men

Immensely readable

A thoroughly enjoyable read.

This gravitas, together with the crackling energy of his ideas and style and his delicious subversion of traditional fairytales, makes A hat Full of Sky a perfect read.

The story comes with all of Pratchett's unique comic inimitability and moves with page-turning insistence to its surprising, satisfying conclusion.

The message throughout is one of self-empowerment and self improvement and it is testimony to Pratchett's writing skill that this message never feels tacked on or cloying. [This book] will be relished by children as well as adults.

Mentioned in Christmas Round Up: Humorous and eloquent, Pratchett again manages to create a book that both children and adults love.

The dialogue is brilliant and the bizarre characters are unforgettable.
