Reviews / Votes
Praise for Mini Rabbit Not Lost by John Bond:"Mixes silliness with a Jon Klassen-like note of piquant peril . . . and an unexpected final twist make(s) for great appeal." The Guardian
'John Bond brilliantly captures the single-mindedness of small children...little readers will certainly want seconds.'
The Observer
"Adorable . . . a really sweet story with absolutely stunning illustrations" BookTrust
Praise for Mini Rabbit Must Help by John Bond:
"Lively colourful illustrations . . . A Charming and witty book" BookTrust
Praise for Dogs in Disguise by Peter Bently and John Bond
'A rambunctious rhyming picture-book romp ideal for fans of the "Oi!" books, full of ingenious pooches and some truly outrageous rhymes (think schnauzers in trousers and shih-tzus doing ju-jitsu). Bond's trademark wide, staring eyes and bright block colours perfectly complement Bently's bouncing text.' Guardian
