Trade Review
This is a fun story and, as ever, the friends' adventures are hilarious. * Parents In Touch *
This is another wonderful adventure for Claude that we enjoyed very much in our house...Brilliant to encourage those readers who are ready for something a little meatier than a simple picture book story, but also enjoyable for all the family, from small ones listening on your knee, to Grandads who 'borrow' Claude for a chuckle over a cup of cocoa * The Bookbag *
For emerging readers I recommend the Claude books by Alex T Smith, which challenge those ready to move on from picture books with easy-to-follow text, a playful layout and humorous illustrations * Irish Sunday Independent *
This is the latest in the wonderful series by Alex T Smith ... A very humorous book which is ideal for developing readers * Title Sussex *
Not only will the cartoony illustrations and fun comic-strip-like layout keep your young readers entertained, the story is fabulous too! This is reading for pleasure at its best * English 4 - 11 *
