SELECT REVIEWS

Hilarious!

_{– New York Times}

It’s the surreal sense of humour
which will make this book
irresistible to young readers.
_{– Book Trust}

The real treat is observing neurotic,
slit-eyed Peanut and oblivious,
wide-eyed Milo, both of whom are
completely huggable.
_{– Booklist}

Playful, lino-cut print illustrations
perfectly express the dogs’ personalities.
_{– Kirkus Review}
