Foxy Tales: The Road to Fame and Fortune is an amusing story with striking illustrations. The overall book design is very stylish. Great fun. * * * *
Another cracking tale with a hint of slapstick... a laugh on every page.
Ingenious black and white illustrations provided by Alex T Smith... a lot of fun.
Praise for Claude:
'The author is a comparative newcomer to picture books; on this evidence, he should go far.'
The Independent on Sunday
'A handsome creation.'
The Children's Bookseller
