"Very fresh and very personal. A mother sharing secrets with her sonāand with the reader at the same time."
āJames Lee, author of the bestsellingĀ Mr Midnight and Mr MysteryĀ series"I love her series, the illustration is very pretty and attractiveā¦The story is very meaningful and it teaches children things we donāt really touch on."
āSato, kindergarten teacher, Mindchamps @ Raffles Town Club.āMy twin Aksel insisted on reading the 'fart book', as it is now called in my house. Both boys read along and corrected me when I did not get the soundsĀ correctāhilarious! I think it will be read many more times before bedtime."
āAnna Bervander, founder of Lagom Kids"At the parent-teacher meeting, the teacher told me that the children loved the books. Easy to read on their own and the illustrations are very well done. After reading the children kept asking if they would grow old and what would happen to them."
āAdeline Tan, mother of a 5-year-old son and illustratorĀ"Jai loved it the first time I read to him. He saw himself (only child, loves trains and TV) and asked me to readĀ Will I Grow Old?Ā the second night because he loves tickles too!"
