Reviews
‘It has all the reckless fun of George’s Marvellous Medicine… a lively upbeat story that is as enjoyable as a Sloppy Giuseppe with all the toppings’
The Times Children’s Book of the Week
‘Perfect ingredients for comedy chaos’
The Sunday Express
‘This debut novel touches on serious issues like mental health and bullying in a sensitive way, and the humour throughout doesn’t belittle these. Instead the reader roots for Pete and Anna as they ricochet from one magical mishap to the next.’
