Goodreads ' A brilliant book; I really enjoyed it. It's funny (I laughed out loud at the hairy, scary aliens with green bottoms), and exciting.' Get Kids Into Books blog 'Robots, aliens and space are amusingly combined in this sc-fi. tale for early years audiences who will enjoy the metallic characters and have a good laugh at the unlikely teapot fetish of the alien invaders.' Red Reading Hub 'The engaging illustrations in grey tones are full of technical-looking robot details which are sure to inspire young minds. My four-year-old loves this story and not only asks for it to be read again and again but he has also started including a narrative about Benny in his imaginative play.' Acorn Book blog 'This is a fantastically fun book which celebrates the fact that our differences are what makes us special. There’s a real sense of adventure with a lovely splash of dry humour.' Ivy's Library blog 'A robot book which definitely has heart. One Button Benny learns his true worth and proves the bullies wrong – he IS special after all. The beautiful illustrations really add depth and feeling to the telling of the story.' Library Girl and Book Boy blog |
