Critic Reviews

'At last! A book that perfectly captures the goofy kind of love that Dads have with their kids. Terrible jokes, embarrassing moments and unbridled adoration. Mums get a pass on this occasion!' -- Ryan Tubridy
'A gorgeous, funny book for anyone whose dad makes them roll their eyes from time-to-time!' -- Laura James author of Fabio, News Hounds and The Adventures of Pug
'Sure to tickle your funny bone and capture your heart' -- Nicola Colton author of Jasper and Scruff
'So much fun! And chaos...lots of chaos! A warm hearted read full of ridiculous schemes, hilarious antics and, of course, chickens. Disaster Dad: Chicken Chaos is wonderfully illustrated, and perfect for giving young readers confidence' -- Jen Wallace author of Dinosaur Pie
