Thursday 22nd Apr 2010Great reviews for The Stephensons' Rocket!Here are some of the cracking reviews for The Stephensons' Rocket:
I loved this book. It's a wonderful, heart-warming tale which perfectly captures family life and living with a rescue dog. ... I suspect that this is going to be one of those books which gets read over and over again.
Sue Magee, The Bookbag
A well written and uplifting story that I would recommend to everyone.
BFK Books
The sort of story that should never go out of fashion. A proper, human tale about engaging characters, told with genuine warmth and humour, it's both involving and gently informative.
Armadillo Magazine
A delightful book that deserves to be widely read. The perfect gift for our younger supporters.
