Media Reviews
The tender and surprising story is enriched by the scenery of Sussex lanes in summer . . . Briggs places magic in the context of the everyday and moves us * The Sunday Times *
Puts sentiment, science and imagination comfortably side by side * Guardian *
A lovely blending of realism with a child's imagination and a magical world * The Bookseller *
Briggs is on top form once more with this strange and moving story * Books for Keeps *
A tale of childhood joy and innocence, this has the hallmark of a Brigg's classic, where, for a moment, reality is suspended and imagination takes over * Manchester Evening News *
