“The pictures are big, bright and enchanting. Nick Maland uses his cross-hatching technique to good effect to create beautiful polar bears, tigers, monkeys and teddies. Mara Bergman’s rhyming text is spot on, both catchy and fun and easy to join in with. Verse and illustrations come together to create a rosy vision of family life at its best.”
