Review:
`Now a new generation can enjoy the books'
--The Sun
`There's something wonderfully old-fashioned and charming about the "short, fat, furry" creatures. They are simple without being simplistic, innocent without being naïve, civic minded for its own sake'
--Irish Examiner
`The rubbish collecting eco message has a new resonance'
--Angels and Urchins
`More than 40 years since the Wombles first hit Wimbledon Common, the six original titles by Elizabeth Beresford are back in print, with an environmental message that has never been more relevant. Perfect for 8-to 10-year-olds'
--Telegraph Magazine
`A genuine classic returns . . . A new generation will delight in the adorable Wombles of Wimbledon Common and, with their passion for recycling, they couldn't be better role models. Nostalgic adults will also love getting re-acquainted with the furry crew'
--Saga
`This charming series is as relevant for young readers today as it was in the 1960's'
--Primary Times
`Those of us of a certain age will be delighted to see the return of those famous residents of Wimbledon Common. Orinoco, Uncle Bulgaria and the rest are a charming and entertaining bunch, plus, with their litter-picking way, they can teach us all a thing or two about recycling'
--Sunday Express
'No kid should grow up without having the Wombles in their lives' --The Bookbag, June 2011
