A wonderful creation for newly independent readers. -- The Bookseller A treat for new readers. -- Peters Gazette Comic talent not just for writing a good story but also illustrating it in a fitting but hilarious style. -- Books For Keeps I loved everything about this book. -- Bookbag Thank goodness Alex T Smith is doing such a grand job of continuing to feed my Claude habit. I do like to steal the Claude stories away from my daughter and curl up to read them myself as they always cheer me up. Smith has great style in his artwork, and a real sense of fun, and he matches it perfectly with the cleverly crafted stories. * * * * * -- Bookbag Another Claude book - wonderful! Excellent for newly confident young readers... beautifully produced too. -- parentsintouch.co.uk Quirky illustrations and a truly endearing central character make this a winner for both children and parents. -- World Book Day Children and adults will love Claude's exploration of the countryside... a hilarious addition to this stylish series.

There is absolutely nothing to dislike about the Claude series, nothing. -- Library Mice Quintessentially British humour from writer/illustrator Smith... whimsical and charming. -- Financial Times An out-and-out winner this. -- Daily Telegraph Innovative illustrations... Claude's surreal adventures are both amusing and fun to read, having great appeal for newly confident readers. -- Books for Keeps A lively read, with images in a stylish retro palette of black, white and red. -- Junior Cleverly mixing the everyday and the surreal. -- Carousel
