Reviews for Max & Bird
The Guardian - '...a story shot through with Vere’s trademark irreverent wit'
Kirkus Reviews - 'Real warmth followed by a rush of triumph helps make this book stand out.'
Publisher's Weekly - 'lots of laughs along the way.'
Some reviews for Max;
The New York Times - 'Max is an expressive huge-eyed black ball of kinetic kittenness who pops against each page’s bright, differently colored background. Kids will be tickled that they can distinguish a mouse and a monster while Max doesn’t, and — spoiler alert — the monster is more funny than scary.'
'will appeal to design-savvy parents'
The Sunday Times's - Children's book of the week - 'Elegantly designed - jokes that build - laugh out loud text'
The Huffington Post - 'Charming and funny'
The FT - 'One of those cherishable picture books designed to withstand repeat bedtime readings.'
The Independent - 'full of cat-appeal'
Publisher's Weekly - 'the punchy text and illustrations command attention'
Kirkus 'A cat-and-mouse game to be laughed at and reread.'
And;
Books for Keeps - 'Ed Vere is the king of colour in contemporary picture books & Max the Brave is another showcase of delights.'
