"The Madhouse Mini-testers have requested this book several times
at bedtimes and have been squealing excitedly before I've even got
to the first page. Juliette does always end up doing impressions of
Findus bouncing around on the bed though, so I may have to move it
forward to a mid-afternoon read so that the excitement doesn't
prevent them going to sleep!"----Cheryl Pasquier, Madhouse Family
Reviews
"Their friendship is robust, profound, sincere, and--I dare to
claim--one of the best anywhere in children's literature. They have
their ups and downs, their arguments and makings up, and along the
way there is always a great deal of madcap humor."----Playing by
the Book
