What does the Pageticker team say about The Prince Of Pants?

We loved this wonderfully silly birthday adventure, which combines playful language with bright, joke-filled illustrations. The hunt for Prince Pip’s missing pants makes this an especially enjoyable read-aloud, with plenty for children to spot and discuss. It is best suited to children who enjoy toilet humour and lively visual comedy... though some families may prefer a less pants-focused choice...
