I very much liked Wakeling’s inventiveness and imagination. Children of 7 and up would relish the surreal ‘Hamster Man’ or ‘The Demon Mouth’ and the language and content of the poems is slap bang up to date and all the better for it. […] The poems are varied in shape and form, there is bold use of white space and a sense of enjoyment in the language. I think 7 year olds would love this one and I expect it to walk out of my study very soon.
