Praise for Chip Colquhoun: "Have been reading this at bedtime to a 9 year old and a 6 year old and they are both loving it, and I am too! Very engaging and accessible." - "Kindle Customer" of Cambridgeshire Folk Tales for Children"Fantastic book, aimed at children but suitable for all ages!" - "Amazon Customer" of Cambridgeshire Folk Tales for Children"Great for engaging the children. Even the children who usually don't listen as carefully as some of the others were just totally involved in it. It appeals to lots of different children's interests." - Sarah, teacher of children aged 9-11 at Jeavons Wood Primary School"I was particularly impressed, because some of my children are quite young, and some of the stories are quite long, but despite that they were really engaged in them. I think it was a combination of how it was written, and the themes in the stories." - Helen, teacher of children aged 4-6 at Whaddon CE SchoolPraise for Korky Paul: "Vivid and wondrous" - The Sunday Times"Delightfully entertaining" - Books for Keeps"The pictures, as ever, bristle with an inspired lunacy that 5+ love." - Amanda Craig, The Times
