  • Critical Reception

    • "[W]hat makes this book truly charming is the combination of Gaiman's wit and the remarkable artwork by McKean. Each page is lavishly illustrated with simple ink drawings washed over and filled in with vibrant colors..." - SF Site
    • "I'm sure I'm not the first reviewer here to say that I love this book as much as any kid ever could. Great story, great writing, exceptional artwork by the inimitable Dave Mckean. If you don't fall in love with this book, then I'd be willing to wager that you never had a childhood." - Amazon.com user reviews
