Reviews
Beautifully illustrated story about a robot whose broken heart is healed by the companionship of a little bluebird
Nursery World
Offbeat talent in a world reminiscent of Tim Burton’s.
Observer
A poignant book…It’s simple pictures steer the story away from sentimentality, and its readers will take a while to grow out of it.
Telegraph
This is (excuse the pun) a real heart warmer of a book.

This is one of the finest children’s picture books I have had the pleasure of reading in a very long time.
