Reviews

"...the best recent picture book by light years, is stylishly spellbinding" Telegraph "If only all picture books could be this good" The Bookseller "This is a magical, beautifully illustrated tale about reaching for dreams... Adults tend to think of waiting as tedious, but the magic of this book is that it understands waiting as children wait - alert, apprehensive and using their imaginations." Mail on Sunday
