"The sophisticated, surreal and dreamlike illustrations created through mixed media, including manipulated photographs of dolls, flowers and paper constructions, often charmingly spill over onto the pages of text" — Kirkus Reviews

"Beautifully re-told, using rich vocabulary and maintaining a story-telling style. Coupled with the fabulous pictures, the book is a real treasure which children (and adults) will wish to linger over and enjoy again and again" — North Somerset Teachers' Award

“An excellent book to introduce children to a classic tale whilst fostering their new found reading skills” — Parents in Touch
