“[Eco Zico] simplifies the recycling process making it interesting and easy for children to understand.”(InTouch magazine, INTO publication, November 2010)
“Part of a series of environmentally aware stories, this book is a superhero story with a twist…{Eco Zico} itself as well as its message is environmentally friendly and it includes advice and guidelines for younger readers so that they too can be like Zico. The big format, big type and simple pictures with lots happening make the book feel accessible to children of perhaps six to eight.” (Books Ireland, November 2010)

“Both books [Perry the Polar Bear Goes Green & Perry the Playful Polar Bear] are attractive, brightly coloured books with amusing illustrations on every page by Nina Finn-Kelcey. Like all good story books, they can be appreciated just for the tale they tell as Perry gets involved in one adventure or another. However, they also have a message…the books will certainly appeal to younger readers, or those who need to have it read to them, with their quirky plots and funny characters.” (Books Ireland, April 2010)

The book has 32-pages with full colour illustrations and is beautifully illustrated by Nina Finn-Kelcey.” (Primary Times, December 2009)
