The Bookseller
Lovingly written and sumptuously illustrated.
Books That Help
This is a smashing book to share with a little one just before bedtime; it’s infused with love and the magical images of possibilities inspired by the interplay of the verbal and visual.
Red Reading Hub
A story that will lure you into a vibrant, bold and wonderful dreamscape like no other. With deeply coloured illustrations full of life and movement from Sandhya Prabhat the combination of story and image will both intrigue the listener and lull them… With its gentle rhyming text and its sense of both reader and listener weaving a quilt of dreams across roaring seas and through the inky night sky this book is incredibly gentle and calming, leaving in its wake a warm and contented feeling.
Armadillo Magazine
The splendid illustrations suffuse every page and work in perfect harmony with the carefully chosen, poetic words of the lullaby… I strongly recommend this beautiful book which will be treasured by young children and their parents as a bedtime favourite.
