Media Reviews
"Bouncy and mischievous, Sally Nicholls's The Button Book is illustrated with giddy, infectious energy by Bethan Woollvin" * Guardian, Children's Books of the Year *
"Wonderfully illustrated... The last one is a sleep button. Good night, children. More confirmation that children’s book creators are unsung geniuses." * New York Times *
"This beautifully simple concept takes readers on a magical interactive journey, powered only by imagination and play. Fresh and charming, with lots of scope for children–and adults–to join in." * The Bookseller *
"Nicholls' simple, silly narrative and Woollvin's colorfully childlike illustrations result in a fun picture book that incorporates shapes and colors and that can be used at home and in libraries and classrooms." * Kirkus *
"Each button is made distinct by a specific setting and palette, with Woollvin—an exceptional colorist—utilizing one hue at a time to highlight her black-and-gray illustrations, which makes for dynamic visuals as the pages go by." * Booklist *
