This review is from: The Five Senses (Paperback)

A highly recommended book. Liked by the children's panel of Alice 9, Emma 7, and Lucy 5. Particularly fond of the optical illusions and funny references to "ant poo and lots of tickling." The stylized cursive writing is a little hard to read for the very young aged 5, but pages that look as if they have been eaten and pages you can feel and the page you can scrunch up are fun. Thanks to the London Times (Dec. 8-14th 07)for this review.
