"It is great to come across a book that will be enjoyed by the people it is intended for.. There is so much charming detail to pore over." School Librarian "Worth buying for their stunning, detailed illustrations alone. Chuffing brilliant as ever, as the train might say." -- Kathy Ball BBC Parenting "This is a lovely gentle story that has a familiar, traditional feel to it. The illustrations are very detailed and wonderfully busy... Each time I looked at the book, I found something new in every picture, and this will hold the attention of even young children." Eastern Daily Press "A triumphant tale chock full of delightful illustrations." The Good Book Guide "Readers can enjoy the meticulous illustrations of machines at work...there are also several different action rhymes to join in with." -- Alison Boyle Nursery World
