A joy to read aloud and gorgeously illustrated by Dunbar - especially the oblivious baby.
(Bookseller)This fabulous and ridiculous bouncing story told in a rollicking rhyme charts the adventures of a baby who gets wafted away in a bubble. Over the heads of all bibble - bobbles the baby in the bubble while everyone wonders, how will we ever get him down? A huge adventure which will engage all through its witty, laugh-out-loud text and gorgeous illustrations.
(Julia Eccleshare Lovereading)I can't remember the last time I so enjoyed reading anything out loud. Just try this sample: "But she bellowed, 'Gracious Greville!' and she grovelled on the gravel as the baby in the bubble bibble-bobbled overhead." Now imagine this deliciously ridiculous tongue workout going on for 32 thoroughly entertaining pages. Add in an ever-expanding and eccentric cast of characters given cosy, comfy and colourful shape by the tremendously talented Polly Dunbar. Then wrap it all round a beautifully silly chase story in which Mabel's baby brother is acciedently careted aloft by the errant bubble, with a resolution featuring a villanous chorister with a catapult and some nifty 'catchwork' with a patchwork quilt, and you'll have some idea why I found it so much fun.
(Armadillo Magazine)5 star ' frolicking, rollicking rhyming story ... Polly Dunbar captures the mood brilliantly.'
(Books for Keeps)A grand rhyming romp.
(School Librarian)The book shows the fun that can be had with language, and will be enjoyed by children over a wide age range. Polly Dunbar's illustrations support the text well, with clear characterisation and a wonderful array of facial expressions. Altogether this is a delight.
