Alison Brown, Reading Zone
This gorgeous picture book perfectly encapsulates that inability to just 'wait'. ...A great story for starting discussions on manners - and perhaps children can be persuaded to test how long they are prepared to wait for a small treat!'
Parents In Touch
Wonderfully told and superbly illustrated
Telegraph.co.uk
Antony's picture books stress the virtues of behaving well. But the engaging illustrations and zappy prose ensure that children never suspect they are being preached to.
Evening Echo (Cork)
A very simple tale told with minimal text, the beauty of this picture book ... is in its illustrations, and in particular the world-weary look in the eyes of the pernickety panda
School Librarian
Sure to be a firm favourite with any panda/penguin/doughnut fan!

The use of space ... is masterly, and the various characters each bring their own personalities to the page ... Sure to be a firm favourite with any panda/penguin/doughnut fan!

Steve Antony is a huge hit with parents, because his books all stress the virtues of behaving well. But the engaging illustrations and zappy prose ensure that children never suspect they are being preached to.... simple yet skilful

This hundred-word story reflects the impatience that every child experiences and teaches the valuable lesson of waiting in a gentle and funny way. Already a classic

A humorous and stunningly illustrated lesson in good manners and perseverance. Perfect for pre schoolers!
The Daily Telegraoh
The picture book formula at its magic best ... Antony succeeds without gimmicks: the very young child will be gripped by his cosy drawings and the cliffhanger: will the penguin's patience be rewarded? ... Even the most impatient children will wish to return to Antony's sparse, expressive prose
