Reviews

  • New readers are in for a treat with these British imports.

    - The Horn Book Magazine, starred review

  • Top-notch medical care in an equally terrific early reader that will appeal to preschoolers, new readers of all ages and anyone else who appreciates droll humor and an inventive plot.

    - Kirkus Reviews, starred review

  • The folkloric connections broaden the use possibilities for libraries and classrooms, and the titles could inspire student writing or dramatic projects in a similar vein, while the medical situations are surprisingly educational.

    - The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

  • The books feature one to three sentences per page, and the illustrations are large, colorful, and funny.

    - School Library Journal, recommend

  • Valuable lessons about overcoming fears and setting aside differences for others are emphasized.

    - Library Media Connection
