Recensione:

The strangest and loveliest offering for small readers ... Exquisitely drawn, it's drily funny and addresses our perennial failure to appreciate the wonder of life (Amanda Craig, 'Best Children's Books of 2017' New Statesman)

Gorgeous ... Bickford-Smith's life-affirming artwork raises The Worm and the Bird to the stars (The Times)

Absolutely stunning. A very sweet story with a touch of dark humour too. Wonderful. A fantastic book (Chris Haughton, author of 'A Bit Lost')

A beautifully illustrated fable ('Gifts for Christmas 2017' Guardian Bookshop)

I love love love it, just beautiful (Millie Marotta, author of 'Millie Marotta's Animal Kingdom')

I love it. A book to buy and treasure, for yourself or others. (Marion Deuchars, author of 'Let's Make Some Great Art' and 'Colour')

It's touching, lovely to look at, beautifully conceived and designed. Good for children, and busy grown-ups too (David Gentleman, author of 'London, You're Beautiful')
