BookTrust
“The sheer range of this book means that you could quite legitimately buy it for anyone of any age group, and they would find something to enjoy. And of course, the message, that perceived ‘difference’ is (a) normal and (b) actually quite good, is a life lesson that we would all do well to remember! ”
Armadillo
“Accompanied by Lane Smith's witty and beautifully textured illustrations, Jory John's story offers a breezy view of these issues as well as some endearingly elegant and polite dialogue between Edward and Cyrus.”
