Rezensionen

Beaton - who has a marvellous talent for capturing nuances of facial expressions in an exaggerated cartoon style - makes Penelope look deeply nonplussed at the barbarian's cuddliness. [...] Children's books in general, and The Princess and the Pony in particular, seem to have a more mature sense of the way that strength can mean not the biggest gun, but the cutest sweater.
