The dastardly duo from Egg returns in this delightfully silly tale. The utterly charming Foxy Dubois and Alphonso the Alligator put on their dancing shoes to commit the crime of the century! But when they hit the dance floor, things start to go terribly wrong…

Bookbag
The illustrations are brilliantly drawn... a lot of fun.
Peters Gazette
Wonderful, expressive illustrations and a humorous story with true child appeal.
School Librarian
Big, bold illustrations by the author add to the story.
Carousel
Will keep youngsters enthralled. A witty text with strong illustrations make this a gem of a book.
Library Mice
This is a totally wacky tale, but that is the beauty of it. Expect fits of giggles at storytime.
Guardian
Hilarious... gorgeous brightly coloured illustrations.
Sunday Express
Plenty of emotion and drama in this story of two young puppies trying to survive. If you love Michael Morpurgo, you will enjoy this.
Booktrust
Will guarantee giggles from younger readers. A glorious picture book that is as loud and zany as... well, as an alligator dancing in a sequined skirt. Encore, Encore!
