This is a fantastic series that is sure to capture the attention of any reader with its funny and engaging story.
Comic talent not just for writing a good story but also illustrating it in a fitting but hilarious style.
Little ones will be high-kicking long after the last page is turned; a glittering triumph.
Quirky illustrations and plenty of humour.
A wonderful creation for newly independent readers.

I loved everything about this book.
A lovely, silly story and once again the well written words and delightful illustrations go together beautifully.
Claude is taking to the stage and that can only mean mayhem! Little ones will be high-kicking long after the last page is turned; a glittering triumph
Illustrated throughout in a quirky, elegant, 1950s style, in a distinctive palette of red, white and black. Smith's off-the-wall humour and sense of fun will keep both children and their parents entertained from beginning to end. An utterly charming book for emerging readers.
Alex T. Smith is a rising star in children's books. The text is ideal for early readers, combining simple language with humour and page-turning entertainment. It is his skill in creating drama out of bright comedy that makes the book such a compulsive read.
A treat for new readers.
