Reviews"Old Tom is a big, resounding yes for children who live in a world of nos. In all these hilarious adventures, Hobbs is right on the beating heart of what it is to be a child." --Sydney Morning Herald, on Old Tom's Big Book of Beauty "The text tells a simple story but the brightly colored cartoon illustrations provide laugh-out-loud humor. Fans of Harry Allard and Dav Pilkey should enjoy this title." --School Library Journal
