Rezension
A wonderfully bright and noisy book (Book Trusted News)
A wonderfully rumbustious noisy poem (Northern Echo)
A book to brighten the dullest day … intensely coloured, exuberant illustrations combine with a jazzy rhythmic text to produce a book that demands to be real aloud (The Scotsman)
Hard-to-resist rhythm (Childrens Bookseller)
The words process up, down, around and across the pages in perfect harmony with the dinosaurs’ dancing and prancing. There is a tremendous sense of movement in the illustrations, which seem to gyrate before your eyes (School Librarian)
