About this title

Review

This glorious cumulative story sees the requirements for entry growing ever more stringent - and the list of party-goers ever longer. It builds to a superb and wholly unexpected ending which will delight young readers. Gloriously illustrated, with an immense amount of careful detail which mustn't be missed. Wonderful! (Parents in Touch)

Colourful, fun and easy to follow, young kids will love having a look through the illustrations while you read them the book in bed.  (Mummy Pages)
