Reviews

This story is a reassuring read for children starting school; an affirmation of the sensitive child and a fine assimilation of Asian culture and story. The author is certainly someone to watch for in the future.

A charming book for early readers about conflict, family ties and the power of imagination

This is a story which reaches across cultures to show how friends, family and home are important to all of us. The illustrations have a wonderful oriental tone and the front cover is striking.
