Recensione:
"Writing that is as light on its feet as a human cannonball... what really sets it apart is the easy humour, cameos (Granny and Fizzer the dog) and the postmodern footnotes that might flop in different hands, but instead lift the book into classic status. Bring on the next act!" The Times, Children's Book of the Week
"Pure delight... the promised sequel can't come too soon" The Independent on Sunday

"Sutcliffe is a natural storyteller who gets you laughing from page one" Moontrug
"Delightfully funny... definitely up there as one of the best" BooksforBoys
