“I loved Gingerbread Aliens. It was action packed and hilarious! My favourite part was the bit with the sultana brains - eeewww! The illustrations were awesome too.” Peter, aged 9
“I loved everything about Gingerbread Aliens, especially the picture of Mrs Witherbottom's bottom - it was really funny! I can't wait to bake then eat my own gingerbread aliens.” Emma, aged 7.
“I loved reading Gingerbread Aliens to my kids! It was very entertaining and I particularly enjoyed all the different characters and exciting plot. I had planned to read it over a few nights but found myself so engrossed in the story that I finished the whole book in one reading!” Helen, mother of 2.
“Gingerbread Aliens is about three brothers that make a bet on who can raise the most money at the school fete. So they all go and make their own things to sell. But who will win the bet? And what will happen to the loser? (ha ha) Gingerbread Aliens is a funny and exciting book. I loved the slime, goo and silly putty not to mention what happens to Mrs Witherbottom's backside. You can never tell what's going to happen next with its unpredictable ending. I would love to read another book from Sandra Bennett,” Dane, aged 8.
“I really liked the book, it was very funny. I liked it when the scientists came, they were acting very funny and they looked good,” Sean, aged 9.
