Review
When silly Billy's beetle escapes from its matchbox home the hunt is on to track him down, and before long a host of characters including the owner of a very sniffy dog, a polar bear (who just joins the search for fun), a brass band and an elephant get in on the act.
Clear, action-packed illustrations and easy-to-follow, sly, witty text make this hilarious and colourful book a joy for young readers, drawing them in to the adventure and encouraging active little minds to join in the search themselves. As smart as ever, Inkpen wins again with a tale to make you smile. (Ages 2 to 5) --Susan Harrison
Review
This wonderful tale of lost and found exudes a slapstick sense of comedy and is perfectly pitched for a toddler's emerging sense of fun (Junior)
A classic picture book from master storyteller Mick Inkpen (Carmarthen Journal)
This is a tremendous book for encouraging children to join in and get involved (EYE Magazine)
Truly childlike and unusually entertaining. (Kirkus Reviews)
Evocative language will have readers eager to help the story with their own sounds. (School Library Journal)
In this buoyant tale of a hunt for a lost beetle, Inkpen once again displays his abundant creativity. (Publishers Weekly)
The cumulative nature of this text, with its natural repetition, makes this an ideal book for apprentice readers, as well as for sharing. (The School Librarian)
... lively pictures with a funny, repetitive text to create a wonderfully wacky story. (Parents)
This is a tremendous book for encouraging children to join in and get involved, as they all want to call out to show you where the beetle is. (EYE)
