Literary World.—“A handsomely bound, mouth-watering, in every way up-to-date volume, written especially for and on behalf of the toddler or the newly breeched.”
People.—“A delightful story for children, something in the style of ‘Alice in Wonderland,’ but also having some flavour of Kingsley’s ‘Water Babies.’ ”
Sun.—“Good fairy stories are a source of everlasting joy and delight. Mr Adair Fitz-Gerald breaks fresh ground and writes pleasantly. . . . The book has the added advantage of being charmingly illustrated in colour by Gustave Darré.”
Nottingham Guardian.—“It is a merry book, and should keep the nursery in a good humour for hours. It is artistically got up, the illustrations by Mr Gustave Darré being of a high order of merit.”
Manchester Courier.—“It should prove a great favourite with young people, being written by one who evidently takes the utmost interest in them and their ways. The full-page illustrations are very pretty.”
Weekly Sun.—“Mr Adair Fitz-Gerald is a well-known writer of fairy stories and humorous books for the young. ‘The Grand Panjandrum’ is just the sort of book to please youngsters of all ages, being full of pleasant imaginings, and introducing its readers to a host of curious people.”
