The combination of sparky rhyming text and action-packed, zizzy scenes make for another winner for that little Itchy Witch and her creators. -- Jill Bennett * Red Reading Hub * The opening line sets up a spell-stuffed escalation of one-upmanship, in the ultimate fancy-dress face-off. Brim-full of childhood delights, there is glitter and goo, and a firework explosion of colourful sparks on nearly every page. [Helen Baugh and Deborah Allwright have] produced a wonderful collaboration that anyone who spends time in the presence of young siblings will appreciate! -- Leliah Skelton * Waterstones *
