Reviews

"Toon's stories are beautifully told, quirky and delightful, with the warmth of the wonderful Pooh stories. Jessica Ahlberg's illustrations perfectly complement the mood of the writing, they're a joy!"
– Wendy Cooling, MBE, Founder of Bookstart

Praise for The Squirrel's Birthday and Other Parties and Letters to Anyone and Everyone: "Two of the loveliest and most charming collections of stories I have EVER had the pleasure of reading. Think A.A. Milne's stories of Winnie the Pooh and Christopher Robin, but a shade quirkier - perfect for anyone old enough to sit and listen, and perfect as family read-alouds."
– Alison Morris, Publishers
