"A really original and quirky story... The great thing about this is that it works on several different levels... It is a very clever book - and enormous fun." The Guardian; "The book has a cleverness and skill that will appeal to adults and a zaniness that children will find likeable and funny." The Sunday Times, Children's Book of the Month; "The pictures are beautiful and ingenious. You can see that the nose is always settling into landscapes that, if you look again, suggest faces. Worth sniffing out." The Observer
