‘Grandma Z celebrates the power of vivid imagination, and the illustrations are absolutely spectacular, with bold colours and strong brushstrokes that convey a magical world … Daniel Gray-Barnett … has created something entirely unique that is both readable and a visual feast.’

-- Angela Crocombe * Books+Publishing *

‘An unusual, joyful picture book.’

* The School Librarian *

‘You won’t find Grandma Z with curlers and knitting needles. Run-of-the-mill for this gregarious granny involves motorcycles, rock climbing, a dragon’s tooth horn, dancing Icelandic ponies and afternoon tea at a palace – all while wearing a furry blue trench coat.’

-- Melanie Kembrey * The Saturday Age *
