What Reviewers Are Saying
Depicts the relationship between child and parents with a gentle affection. The text is aimed squarely at the child in its use of simple, accessible language, and Bradman's sympathies too are clearly with his main character - as shown by the gentle twist in the tale which little ones will love to predict. Eileen Browne's illustrations, meanwhile, bring a lovely warmth to both the family dynnamic and the wider community, although this is a story that could be set anywhere, dealing as it does with one of the universal constants of parent-child relationships. || One of those ideal texts that you should have in the book area for children to choose from because it gives positive messages about difference and celebrating cultural diversity in a subtle and implicit way. || I love children's books that give realistic reflections of family life and all its imperfections... This is another book of that calibre. || A must for parents who want their children to appreciate all the colours of the world.
