Reviews
Attack of the Giant Baby is destined to be a colossal hit. This delightfully whimsical and imaginative tour de force is the cross between Toy Story and King Kong you didn't know you needed! * Picture Book Snob *
Young readers will love this playful and imaginary realisation of a familiar family drama which is vividly captured in Bruce Ingman's large-scale illustrations which blend real and imaginary worlds perfectly * Julia Eccleshare, Love Reading 4 Kids *
A slightly silly, enormously enjoyable story demonstrating the importance of listening to children * Red Reading Hub *
Laugh out loud ... Destined to be a repeat read at bedtime * Sloan Magazine *
Perfect for all children with lively imaginations and a sense of fun, this is a hoot of a book which will fast become a favourite * Books For Keeps *
