"Exuding as much warmth, wit and wonder as Babe the Gallant Pig and Paddy's Pot of Gold, this newest addition to the author's impressive list of titles is sure to be a hit." ( Publishers Weekly)

A boy with a doll? But the story works!

Dick King Smith has the amazing ability to tell a story about a young boy who gets to take care of a talking doll - and he is meant to be an action loving boy. The relationship with his parents and grandmother is excellent, proving a very believable response from a father that loves his son. I won't give anything away other than say that the father's reaction to finding out his son was taking care of a doll - and a very pretty Victorian Era doll at that - rather than concentrating on being a better football goalie is spot on. The result is not a whitewash of the father's desire for his son to be a man, or irrational actions either.
The narrator captures all the voices very well.
Once more, Dick King Smith made our long country drive very memorable.

Wow!

Another wonderful Dick King-Smith book, and another wonderful narrator. Our whole family delights in his stories: humorous, profound, magical, compassionate, insightful. We’re so glad that more of his books are being recorded now. The narrators chosen are almost always superlative, as is this one. Thank you! Keep more coming please!
