Reviews
Anthony Browne is one of the most talented artists working in children's books today and it's always exciting to see a new book by him. It is even more exciting when the book in question is about the marvellous character Willy * Parents Magazine *
No one who knows Anthony Browne's work will be surprised to learn that the illustrations are quite wonderful * Daily Telegraph *
Anthony Browne's stunning and masterful drawings, combined with a bizarre sense of humour, make Willy's exploits increasingly compulsive * Daily Mail *
Hurrah! we all say. Willy is back to delight us * Books for Keeps *
Browne is one of those acclaimed picture book authors who never disappoints * Sunday Tribune *
