Grey’s witty language, from the hilarious exclamations made by Space Dog ("Thundering milkswamps!", "Shivering Stilton!") to the deliciously outlandish names of rare alien life forms (the Cruets of West Cutlery, the Fruitons of Crumble Major) has had us all giggling time and again, even on the 15th reading of Space Dog Her pacing is timed to perfection, with dramatic stretches interspersed with moments of great relief and humour, drawing readers, listeners, grown-ups, children ever more closely in to Grey’s fantastic, phenomenal universe Spooniverse.

Illustrated and told in Mini Grey's inimitable style, the pages are a riot of graphic creativity. She employs effective devices such as dramatic double-page spreads, cartoon character depictions, comic strip formats, action packed geometric frames and an abundance of snappy humour conveyed through speech bubbles or blocks of text. The hectic impossibility of this pacey tale offers huge appeal to young readers who enjoy extending imaginative boundaries.
