[An] understated and likeable tale that just might restore your faith in human nature * Bella *
Deals with serious themes including family life and the treatment of the elderly in society. The novel addresses these issues with sensitivity and good humour reminiscent of Mark Haddon's The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time * Irish Tatler *
A challenging and moving story about the power of love between generations * Image magazine *
Absolutely delightful . . . Everyone should read this book; it holds laughter and tears, but above all, it has something similar to a beating heart. This is not a book to be missed! * Novelicious *
A carefully constructed comment on how appearances can be deceiving . . . A heart-warming read showing children sometimes know better than grown-ups * Press Association *
It is impossible to resist falling in love with young Milo . . . A spectacular story that I will remember for a long time . . . I really do recommend it * ireadnovels blog *
