Media Reviews
A hugely innovative and read aloud romp from two of today's most original picture book creators. * Bookseller *
Rats and bits of cheese fly everywhere in Vivian Schwarz's energetic drawings * Guardian *
A wonderful, unbridled book * The Observer *
Clever and thoughtful * Booktrust *
A book that ticks all the precepts of what a book for younger audiences have to be like. Simple language, simple approach to illustration, simple story, simple moral and even a tagline you can repeat over and over again. * Inis *
This unusual picture book about the hierarchy of power in the old of rats is wonderfully unusual and full of humour. The repeated language . . . is fun and amusing. Readers will enjoy guessing the following rhyme as the pages are turned. The illustrations are lively, full of humour and tensions. . . the ending is unexpected and reassuring whilst raising a smile and a chuckle * Carousel *
