"McKee’s unstated, surreal humour is as distinctive as his graphic style, and this is a book to delight readers of all ages" -- Andrea Reece * Lovereading4Kids *
"Filled with gentle humour and populated with the quirkiest jungle animals." * Big Issue in the North, Nick Sharratt *
"Master of the children's parable." * The Listener *
