Recensione:
'Brian Sewell has published his first children's book at the age of 83, written while recuperating from an operation. While nobody would wish illness on the art critic - not even those painters who have felt the sharp end of his nib - that bedrest has produced a beautifully written book which should become a classic' --The Times (Children's Book of the Week)
'It's a lovely, wistful story ... moving ... Adults will also be charmed and educated by The White Umbrella' --Mail on Sunday
'This, we can only hope, is not Sewell's last testament, but even if it is, it bears witness to a luminous, and, yes, peculiarly British, talent' --Simon Kelner, Independent
'A charming, allegorical story' --John Walsh, Independent
