Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

Brilliantly written and illustrated (Love It)

[A] well-crafted story about facing down fear (The Guardian)

An amusing and tension-filled tale that turns tail and runs on adrenaline power until the very end (The Lady)

This is a class act (Times Educational Supplement)

A great read aloud and a good giggle (Publishers Weekly)

Nick Maland's clever perspectives make the alligator increasingly alarming as he swells to fill more and more of the page in this well-created story of facing down fear. (The Guardian)

An extremely well written and well designed picture book which will be relished by both young children and the adults who share it with them (Carousel)

Using elements of rhythm and rhyme as well as an enjoyably predicable question-and-answer refrain the text maintains a playful tone beneath the scary details... Expressive line drawings, brightened with watercolour washes, illustrate the story with wit and style... good fun. (Booklist)

Mara Bergman and Nick Mayland tell an amusing and tension-filled tale that turns tail and runs on adrenaline power until the very end. The illustrations add to the appeal of this book. (The Lady)

Here's a picture book which, read aloud, will transform any teacher into a star performer; the fanciful situation, rhythmic text, onomatopoeic words, graphic clues for varying verbal volume and masterly cartooning guarantee this is a class act. The young audience can enjoy a delicious dose of the horrors, while learning that, when afraid, it's best to face up to your fears. (TES)

Reseña del editor:

Reminiscent of We're Going on a Bear Hunt, this text is an absolute delight to read aloud, enabling a child audience to really join in. An alligator is creeping up the stairs, slithering down the hall and swishing and swooshing its tremendous tail and the children are very scared. Until they decide they've had enough of all this scary alligator stuff! And they banish him back from where he came. Beautifully designed and illustrated this book is a real treat!
