Review

PRAISE FOR TOBIAS AND THE SUPER SCARY GHOST BOOK

“A Halloween romp for younger boys and girls.” – The Daily Mail

“Percival is the illustrator of the Skulduggery Pleasant novels and this, his first picture book, has some lovely delicate touches behind the cartoon faces of the children – notice how Tobias fades gently as the years have passed outside” – The Daily Mail

“A heart-warming yet frightfully ghoulish story; Percival’s unique use of colour coupled with his multi-media approach to illustration make this debut picture book a welcomed breath of fresh air.” – Primary Times

“Just the right amount of fun and fear.” – Mums Know Best

“A gloriously fun book” – Derek Landy author of Skulduggery Pleasant

5.0 out of 5 stars a home for mr tipps 26 Sep 2011
By flowers
Format:Paperback
I bought this book for my 2 granddaughters, aged 1 and 4, they both liked it. They loved the bright pictures. I thought it was very good as it kept their attention and the story was very interesting. I liked it so much I have bought 5 more books to give away for Christmas presents! I would strongly recommend this book to children of all ages as older children could read it for themselves.

my 11 month old cannot put this book down, i can tell when he demands mr Tipps. Ive never seen anything like the addiction and attention he pays to this book. Odysseas will never forget mr Tipps, we are going to be reading this book together for a loooonnnnngggg time, we also have Tobias and the super spooky ghost book from Tom Percival, yet another favourite of my son. Thankyou tom for your awesome works. Beautiful.
