Recensioner i media

There is also plenty to explore in Owen Davey's Laika the Astronaut - the artwork gives the story of Laika the canine astronaut real charm. Laika is plucked from the streets of Moscow and launched into space only to be seemingly lost forever when things go wrong. Davey gives a delightful alternative ending which children and adults alike will appreciate.
