"Purrfect!"

A beautifully written and illustrated children’s story book. Whiskering you away to a world of adventure, travel, furry friends and new languages to learn! A must buy for a goodnight story as sleepy eyes close on the adventures of Vince for another day. More places, more adventures and more learning please... (R. Terry)

"Brilliant!"

I have purchased the e-version of this book and think it is a delightful story, combining beautiful illustrations with a story that is educational and will hopefully sew the seed in children to learn another language and find out more about another country. I look forward to receiving the hardback version and indeed future stories in this series. (J. Hughes)

“Fun and entertaining read!”

My five year old and I really enjoyed this book, a fun, entertaining and educational read which is well illustrated and well written - highly recommended and we are now looking forward to other books in the series!
(D. Jenner)

“Wonderful”

The Adventures of Vince the Cat is a really charming story, beautifully told, that is entertaining and subtly informative. The use of French words and phrases are cleverly integrated, which allow the reader to learn whilst not impacting enjoyment of the story. (Amazon Customer)

“An enchanting tale”

An enchanting tale of a girl and her kitten's growing love for each other, and their voyage of discovery. Beautifully illustrated throughout, this is not just a story but is cleverly educational too. I look forward to Heidi and Vince’s next continental adventure together.
(H. Robbins)

“Delightful read”

Such a wonderful book. Beautifully illustrated and educational. Wonder where the next adventure will be?

(A. Mann)

“A delightful time reading your book”

I particularly liked the way you included the French words and phrases, and of course the cat font is very original. You were very clever to combine cats and travel! 
(N. Roe)

“It has a certain "je ne sais quoi" to it!”

Thoroughly enjoyed reading this book with my daughter and how we were able to pick up basic conversational french along the way which made it even more special. Now all we need is to book that trip to Paris and oh yes probably get a cat called Vince!

 (A. Ajetunmobi)

“Creative & entertaining”

This is a lovely well written children’s story. I enjoyed reading about the adventures Vince the cat experiences in Paris with my grandson who is 3... There is also a very handy French/English words section which is really helpful & educational too. The illustration of the story is top notch and the story-line is both engaging & entertaining.

“Excellent read”

I read this book to my daughter and we both really loved it! Its a very enjoyable, educational ( not in a boring way!) and magical read. My daughter now wants to learn French and also visit Paris too! Cant wait for the next book!

“Indian travel as seen by a cat!”

What a lovely book. It’s beautifully illustrated and makes an entertaining, informative and fun read for children. As you read the book, you get to know Vince the cat, and get an insight into his character and looking at things from his perspective. 
(Sewing Sal)

“Such fun!!”

Without a doubt, this book will inspire children to learn more about the people, places and food of India...and to understand more about how cats fit into our world.... or is it the other way round?

“Fantastic read for any child....”

Another beautifully illustrated book by Heidi. The book gives insight knowledge of what India has to offer. The book describes food and history ... there’s so much for the kids to learn. Looking forward to where Vince will be visiting next.

“An amazing concept!”

You’re stories are just lovely and the concept of new languages is amazing! I’m from Canada and do speak French and I can’t get over how amazing your idea of getting the young ones into new languages is!
(Renata)

“You made our ‘Princess’ Very Very Happy”

The very first thing my granddaughter did was to sit on the sofa with her book Vince Goes to Paris & looking at the delightful colourful story illustrations. Robyn ‘told’ a super adventure story in her words  - Ahh to her cat. 

 (J. Gilchrist)

“A parent and child’s guide to Seville!”

An amazing new book all about a wonderful city. Parents and children alike will be sure to love this travel and language guide to Seville. Planning a trip then this book is a must!
(Amazon Customer)

“Vince the Hero”

Vince now becomes a hero in this book rescuing a tiny kitten. This book explores the wonderful city of Seville and the reader can learn some Spanish in the process without feeling that they are learning. As with the previous two books, the story is entertaining, exciting and educational. A great read for children and adults.

 (Jas Guin)

"A delightful read for parents and little ones!"

Wonderfully illustrated and written with a great deal of love, this book shares an intimate story of Heidi and her soon to be best friend Vince the cat. What ensues is, no doubt, the start of many adventures and this first tale delighted my daughter and myself as we shared the story page by page. We both look forward to the next chapter.
