Critic Reviews
'A contemporary, lighthearted version of the "Ugly Duckling" tale.' (School Library Journal)
'As usual, King-Smith provides a harmonious blend of poignant and rib-tickling scenes, in which human and animal characterisations are crafted with equal skill and originality. Readers who have relished the antics of such memorable stars as Babe the Gallant Pig and his grandson Ace will fall in love with Oliver, the ugly gosling who wins the affection of almost everyone he meets.' (Publishers Weekly)
'This gentle story will grace the author's long list of well-loved animal fantasies.' (School Library Journal)
