Critic Reviews
“I think it is quite brilliant…it’s a really special one.” -- Kate De Goldi, Radio NZ National
“For the very small, the year’s best book” -- New Zealand Listener
"A little gem of (not overly) cutesy Japanese graphic design, which asks about the animals that are illustrated in a simple question and answer format"
-- Metro Magazine"The interactive aspect means that young children and adults or older siblings can have a lot of fun reading it together, while kids also learn to pay attention to detail."
-- Five Books, Best Kids' Books of 2022About the Author
