"Perfect example of a picture book that has become a classic. As the story is well known this can help create confidence in telling the story without any word prompts."
"Stunning, strange, disturbing images. The strory is hard to fathom, definately one to appeal to older readers He has a few other books as well, all worth getting for their stunning artwork.."
"Although there tend to be words in Browne's books the images are so interesting that you can completely ignore the words and still enjoy the books. Any of his books work for interesting, artwork."
