Review:
"This is a well-balanced blend of school story - complete with knockabout humour - and some valuable information about classical myths and legends" -- Lyndsay Fraser * Scottish Sunday Herald * "Zany story with lots of information on Ancient Greece" * Bournemouth Daily Echo * "An instantly involving, constantly hilarious tale" -- Andy Stanton * Junior Education * "This book with its eye catching metallic book cover and intriguing title just begs to be read . . . There is so much to keep young readers entertained in this book. There's magic, a clever, fast moving plot, a school setting which children can easily identify with and interesting characters. . . . Greek Mythology is a central theme and it is a masterstroke to introduce young readers to it in a very unusual way" * Armadillo * "It's as crazy as it sounds. Suspend belief and enjoy" * Cork Evening Echo *
