About the Author:
Adrian Mitchell is a prolific and esteemed writer for children, from plays to fiction. But he is best known for his lyrical, magical poetry. For Orchard he has already written three highly successful poetry collections, Balloon Lagoon, Dancing in the Street and The Orchard Book of Poems but this is his first collection targeted specifically at this age range. Adrian's popular poems and complete involvement in the poetry scene today has led him to be named the Shadow Poet Laureate. Tony Ross is one of the most highly regarded children's book illustrators in Britain with a huge fan base abroad as well. He has won many awards, including being Highly Commended for the Kate Greenaway and shortlisted for the Smarties Prize. He has also won the Silver Paintbrush Award three times, for best illustrations by a foreign artist. For Orchard he has illustrated several myths series, Balloon Lagoon and the One and Only books by Laurence Anholt. Tony lives in Wales.
Review:
Witty, playful, kind, poignant, moral but fun, with apt illustrations by Tony Ross, this is a book that I can see children picking up and enjoying for themselves, unassisted. -- Books for Keeps 20051101
