"Brilliant."

"A very short story which made a very big impact, I actually found myself at one point holding my breath."

"You can tell that Ms Trevithick was a fan of Roald Dahl when she was growing up. The stinky trolls in this story are reminiscent of the giants in The BFG and, if possible, even more revolting. Her strong authorial voice and witty prose will appeal to parents as much as children; I caught myself chortling out loud at least every other page."

"You'll probably never look at a slowcooker in quite the same way again after reading this....or your child's My Little Pony."
