A charming, sweet and funny book about a hen who's lost her chick
A charming sequel to the classic Rosie's Walk and an appealing read-aloud for all collections
Bravo, Pat Hutchins, you have not lost your exquisite touch!
It's lovely to see Rosie back again
This sequel to the iconic Rosie's Walk is infused with the same gentle, ironic visual humour ... Highly recommended
Where have you been all these years, Rosie? Welcome back, and hello to your little chick.
A fascinating exercise in returning to your past
The Sixties palette manages to look bright and appealing and Hutchins's illustrations still look really stylish
It's a real pleasure to see Pat Hutchins' follow-up picture book
Pat Hutchins is the Harper Lee of children's books...Hutchins' nostalgic illustrations and careful words keep the smallest chicks engaged to the end.
Rather funny
Fun for everyone
This is a diverting outing, and adults and children who are fond of Rosie will especially enjoy this companion piece.
Hutchins reprises her hand-drawn style and autumnal palette, with the action unspooling across the lower margin of the spreads against a backdrop of orchards and haystacks. This mild continuation stays so true to Rosie's Walk that it could've easily been published a few years after that book, instead of almost 50
Young children will love the 'look behind you' storyline, and this deceptively simple tale, packed with visual detail, should become as popular as the first Rosie adventure
