REVIEWS

“… I enjoyed reading…” “… interesting and original…” -Fiona Kenshole, formerly of Laika Entertainment, producers of Oscar nominated, animated feature films Coraline, Paranorman and The Boxtrolls

“It’s quite… (pardon the pun), very sweet and this idea of edible clouds is very, very cute. You have a beautiful first line. Really wonderful… very magical… a lovely idea.” –Clare Hallifax, Scholastic Australia (Omnibus Books)

“This is a really fun and fresh idea.” –Lisa Berryman, HarperCollins Publishers Australia

“…very nice story and concept.” Emma Borghesi, Brolly Books Australia

“… fun for kids and educational.” Cathy Teets, Headline Books Inc. USA

“I liked Rocky Road Airlines.”  – Suzanne O’ Sullivan, Hachette Australia Books

“Lennice A. Norwood’s Philippe and The Marshmallow and Candy Floss Clouds will confirm what kids have been sure of forever—those fluffy clouds are actually candy. Her story is an imaginative delight as people of all ages swoon over the wonders of a sky that rains candy drops. Norwood’s color pencil illustrations are marvellous! I especially appreciated the distinctly individual faces she gives her characters and her attention to details. And while the rainbow bearing fruits and vegetables brings a bit of healthy dose of reality back, the upbeat and festive air of the story continues unabated. Philippe and The Marshmallow and Candy Floss Clouds is most highly recommended.”- Jack Magnus, Reader’s Favorite
