Praise for Rosen Trevithick

"Brilliant."

- The Independent

(Re: 'The Troll Trap')

"The Other Daughter is a deeply moving and emotional read."

- D. Jones

(Re: 'The Other Daughter')

"You can tell that Ms Trevithick was a fan of Roald Dahl when she was growing up. The stinky trolls in this story are reminiscent of the giants in The BFG and, if possible, even more revolting. Her strong authorial voice and witty prose will appeal to parents as much as children; I caught myself chortling out loud at least every other page."

- Rebecca Davies (The Independent)

(Re: 'The Troll Trap')

"Fun, lighthearted read and well written. Children who enjoy Roald Dahl and Horrible Histories may like this."

- Kew (Amazon Top 1000 Reviewer)

Sex Scenes in Books - When to Use Them
