Media Reviews
‘Told in catchy rhyming verse, a charming friendly slug cheers everyone up by giving them a hug. Including a lonely beetle, a grumpy mouse, an out of sorts skunk, a smelly squirrel and a beaver with work-life balance issues, the slug manages to spread joy and warmth through group hugs. The bright vibrant illustrations will be useful to discuss in circle time with children in nursery and EYFS. It will also make for a soothing bedtime story for the under 4s.’ School Reading List ‘Books for Bedtime’;'Together, text and art radiate a sense of unalloyed communal joy.' Publishers Weekly;'This sweetly endearing charmer, highlighting kindness, is expressed in jaunty, witty rhymes that read and scan beautifully and will develop kids’ aural skills and vocabulary... Readers will embrace this captivating winner.' Kirkus, starred review
