Merle Goll grew up in the north of Germany. More than 25 years ago, she left the shores of the Baltic Sea after school to spend a year in England, and it has been her home ever since."Meddour's gently educational story delivers important messages at the same time as making us smile, while Goll's artwork brings the adorable creatures to vibrant life."
The Lancashire Post
"With themes of friendship and boundary setting, Wendy Meddour's gently humorous story in combination with Merle Goll's equally humorous scenes that convey the changing feelings of the two characters make a read aloud tale that offers a good starting point for discussion with young children."
Jill Bennett, Red Reading Hub
"Patrick and Flippa is a wonderful way to spark conversations about friendship and reliance on one another."
Amanda Shipton, Reading Zone
"For all that it's set on ice, this story really is packed full of warmth. With a light touch and flawed characters, it's a perfect picture book for opening conversations."
BookBairn
"The water might be icy, but this story is full of warmth and laughter... An important message about friendships and setting boundaries delivered with a light touch and lots of laughs."
