MEDIA REVIEWS

The Day the Rains Fell is the best book I've seen for younger children - and for parents who want their children to enjoy and learn at the same time - about why humanity and every species on the planet is threatened -- Caroline Lucas, Green Party MP
A lovely African creation story -- Barbara Band * School Library Association *
The rich warm colours of the watercolour illustrations evoke the African landscape that is the backdrop for the story. A lovely book * Books for Keeps *
Beautiful watercolour illustrations by Karin Littlewood really bring this book to life * Parents in Touch *
