24-carat gold. I forgot reading could be this much fun.
Philip Ardagh
This is a completely madcap adventure with an endearingly idiosyncratic cast of goodies, baddies and talking bats. For everyone who likes their fairy tales fast, fun and funky.
Publishing News
A nice fat read for young readers who enjoy fantasy fairy tales mixed with a dose of Shrek-like humour and laced with suitably inventive and crazy characters
Carousel
A good mix of adventure and humour.
