Industry Reviews

`"Meddour's gently educational story delivers important messages at the same time as making us smile, while Goll's artwork brings the adorable creatures to vibrant life."' The Lancashire Post `"With themes of friendship and boundary setting, Wendy Meddour's gently humorous story in combination with Merle Goll's equally humorous scenes that convey the changing feelings of the two characters make a read aloud tale that offers a good starting point for discussion with young children."' Jill Bennett, Red Reading Hub `"Patrick and Flippa is a wonderful way to spark conversations about friendship and reliance on one another."' Amanda Shipton, Reading Zone `"For all that it's set on ice, this story really is packed full of warmth. With a light touch and flawed characters, it's a perfect picture book for opening conversations."' BookBairn `"The water might be icy, but this story is full of warmth and laughter... An important message about friendships and setting boundaries delivered with a light touch and lots of laughs."' LoveReading4Kids
