I love Corpse TalkIngenious and funny and unfailingly fascinating. Brilliant stuff * Philip Pullman *
Funny and informative...there's a lot of humour here, there's plenty of information and context, too - both of which are key first steps towards a child's historical understanding . . . It has the makings of a huge success for children, and for parents, too * Telegraph *
There are children for whom this will rank among the most valuable books of their lives . . . Corpse Talk is an article of such goodwill and an achievement of such informative pleasure - I just adore it * Women Write About Comics *
