Recensioner i media

"An absorbing, powerful and uplifting story" Booktrust "It is hugely to Davies's credit that she makes these characters live such vibrant lives in the minds of her young readers ... The action in the narrative is unflagging and fast-paced. The language is convincing ... I would like to see this book adopted as a primary class text" -- Rebecca Butler Armadillo Magazine "Heartwarming ... so far removed from anything children here would experience and gives so much to think and talk about, as well as being a page-turning story to boot" The School Librarian
