MEDIA REVIEWS

"Space Dog by Mini Grey is an anarchic, adrenalin-packed adventure of The Highest Order. Utterly and joyously playful, wildly and lavishly imaginative, this dynamic and delightful journey exploring space and friendship is sublime." -- Zoe * Playing by the Book *
"Grey's witty language, from the hilarious exclamations made by Space Dog ("Thundering milkswamps!", "Shivering Stilton!") to the deliciously outlandish names of rare alien life forms (the Cruets of West Cutlery, the Fruitons of Crumble Major) has had us all giggling time and again, even on the 15th reading of Space Dog Her pacing is timed to perfection, with dramatic stretches interspersed with moments of great relief and humour, drawing readers, listeners, grown-ups, children ever more closely in to Grey's fantastic, phenomenal universe Spooniverse." -- Zoe * Playing by the Book *
"Grey's illustrations richly illuminate the world she has built to share with us, giving enormous pleasure every time they are returned to." -- Zoe * Playing by the Book *
