Reviews

“Arturo is my new best friend. I bet he’d be full of amazing stories to share over a cuppa. Bold and daring, this is a mouse who likes to live dangerously…”
Kiwi author, editor and manuscript assessor Donna Blaber reviews Arturo and the Glitter Glue for Kiwi Kids Read Kiwi Books. Read the full review.

“My children are six and eight-years old. They loved the rhyme and cadence of this story and compared it to one of their favourite children’s authors, Julia Donaldson…The story embodies playful mischief, suspense, surprise and a crisply satisfying resolution. The detailed illustrations by Hannah Sames are at once endearing, captivating and whimsical. Our family eagerly awaits a sequel.” ~ A Winter
