The illustrations are wonderful.
The Bookseller
We all sometimes long for an imaginary friend to come to our aid . . . Foreman’s charming watercolours capture that longing so well.
Glasgow Herald
Cityscapes and river scenes come to life in palette of soft watercolours outlined in pencil, with enough people, backstreet crimes and paparazzi moments to keep any child reading intrigued

Hooray, another book by Michael Foreman – one can never get enough of them! Origami girl is an ingenious idea
