wonderfully irreverent counting rhyme; a playfully wicked back-to-school alternative
The Bookseller
a comic countdown chant. This rhyming story is great fun to read aloud⌠Fabulously drawn by Sarah Warburton... Enormous fun... essentially a serial-killing spree with a jolly denouement
The Times
Perfect for the school summer holidays [âŚ] The vivid illustrations are packed with witty detail, the rhyming story bounces along with great pace and thereâs a very funny twist at the end. A great way to learn numbers while laughing out loud.
The Daily Mail & The Scottish Daily Mail
Funny and irreverent, itâs easy to imagine this one being a huge hit at school storytime.
The Guardian
A wonderful, laugh-out-loud way to learn numbers and counting, get ready for school and wind up these last few days of summer.
