'The absurdity and unlikely behaviour of the animals strengthens the storyline. There is a lovely economy of words which tell the story with skill.' (on The Tree)
GLAM Adelaide
'These creatures are cute, friendly and non-threatening to children and divide neatly into two groups ... I would recommend this ... (and the series) to adults looking for a gentle, low-key story for the pre-schooler in their life.' (on The Balloon)
Queensland Reviewers Collective
'Lovers of Graeme's timeless work will delight ... and kids will adore the onomatopoeia.' (on Cows Say Moo)
