Tom Gauld brings all of his wit, draghtsmanship and narrative craft to a funny, moving tale that proves that woodlice can be heroes too. The New York Times review: "one of the best picture books I've read this year.

It's a cabinet of curiosities in a clockwork castle... it's a funny, twisty, heartfelt yarn." -Ben HatkeThe Irish Times review: "The narrative is full of surprises [...] but it is Gauld's detailed, textured illustrations that will draw a young reader's attention back to this wonderful book again and again."[The Little Wooden Robot and the Log Princess was Foyles Children's Book of the Year in 2021]
