'This is a joyous story, sensitively told and beautifully illustrated, with a delightful main character gradually discovering that being brave and adventurous brings rich rewards. I loved it from start to finish.' Daily Mail

'This is a brilliant story about the things that can happen when we try new things and challenge ourselves, and Bogtrotter is a real picture book star, a joyously exuberant character who reminds us all that life is full of adventure, discovery… and boundless possibilities.' Lancashire Evening Post
