Reviews

"Meet Henrietta and Jasper, two playful mice whose appetite for adventure inspires the five charming tales in Helen Williamson's newest release. Beautifully illustrated, Adventures in Dinglewood will remind parents and grandparents of beloved books in the tradition of Peter Rabbit and The Wind in the Willows--But the storylines here are laced with mystery and mettle, crafted to appeal to younger siblings of the Harry Potter generation. Adventures in Dinglewood is sure to take its place alongside many long-loved children's books as a delightful modern classic."

--Kai Rady, Toy and Book Buyer, Shenanigans (est. 1974), Charlottesville, VA, USA

"Helen Williamson and Nancy Atkins charm young readers with the magical adventures of Henrietta and Jasper as they encounter Dinglewood's many zany woodland creatures. . . Adventures in Dinglewood would be a wonderful addition to any child's bookshelf."

--Anna Burger, author of Pea Soup and the Seafood Feast and The Sea Hunt
