Anne Dalton's illustrations are superb - reminiscent of Greenaway and perfectly matched to the genre of cumulative story. The layout of the text fairly races along and sends the reader galloping through a tongue-twisting tale which I'd defy any adult to read faultlessly - especially after teaching all day! It causes great hilarity and is bound to be frequently demanded by my sadistic class.
