Reviews

We've never hidden our love for Pom Pom and just when you think you couldn't possibly love him any more he's back with a vengeance and this time he's a superhero! Presented once again in the bright block colours that have become synonymous with Sophy Henn's loveable panda character, this latest instalment of Pom Pom's adventures is another sure fire winner. Pom Pom is waiting expectantly for his friends to arrive. One by one they turn up each dressed as their own unique superhero. From Buddy the Fantastic Footballing Flash to Twinkly Twirly Tornado Bear. Each of Pom Pom's friends had found their own super talents and transformed into their own superhero. But what is Pom Pom's unique talent? Brilliant biscuit juggler? Perhaps not! Maybe he can fly and just never knew it... Another brilliantly heart warming story about friendship and finding your own unique talent, from the queen of the bold palette and deceptively simple characterisation. Sophy Henn, has undoubtedly created a future classic in Pom Pom and he will quickly adorn many bookshelves across the land. Using a gentle and humorous narrative and the most expressive panda, emerging readers will delight in the exploits of this adorable bear. * Picturebooks Blogger * The boys and I devoured Pom Pom Is Super approximately 12 times the day it arrived... and every day since!' * 2boys1mum * It certainly gets a big thumbs up from the boys! * Sticky Mud and Belly Laughs * This is a beautiful book. * Gingerbread House * A lovely story about finding your talents and being a superhero in your very own way * Book Bairn * This has turned into another firm favourite. * What The Redhead Said * Those who are new to the series will soon see why Sophy Henn is such a highly-acclaimed talent! * Junior Magazine * I snatched up the new Pom Pom book as soon as it was put on display! * North Somerset Teachers Book Award * A sweet and funny story * Ni4Kids *
