"A true collector's item! This book is simply riveting and bursts with exciting and weird surprises. Just like an inquisitive child, you won't be able to resist peeling open the flaps and waiting in anticipation to see what wonderful surprises lie beyond. Remember those advent calendars with windows that, when opened, revealed an image, a poem, or a small gift? The one that counted down to Christmas and delighted children so? Well, this is better. Much, much better." New Straits Times 20171001
