Betsey is a delightful, gutsy, inventive child, who leads a happy life with the ups and downs of any child, losing things, being tricked by siblings, having mixed experiences at school, all the little dramas of life everywhere. There are some big dramas too, like a terrifying hurricane. These lively books have enough humour and zest to appeal to any child.

A nine year old in need of a burst of sunshine should look for Malorie Blackman's The Big Book of Betsey Biggalow. - Independent

A delightful book. - Irish Examiner

The West Indian setting ensures a lively dramatic edge, not least when the heroine's family face the onslaught of a hurricane that turns out to be less trouble than Betsey herself. - Guardian
