Doug Naylor has always been a master storyteller and this might be his most intriguing adventure yet. As funny as it is clever, and brilliantly mysterious from one page to the next, Sin Bin Island drags you through the story at pace, while Doug's turn of phrase and ambling side tracks keep you chuckling along the way. A genius writer, and a perfect book! * Jamie Smart, creator of Bunny vs Monkey *
Brilliant, totally brilliant. Exciting. Heart-stopping. Hilarious. And touching too. It's the book I always wanted to read as a kid but could never find. It's the new Harry Potter. I want a part in the movie franchise!! * Craig Charles, actor, comedian and radio presenter *
Insanely funny and inventive - get yourself a ringside seat for this cartwheeling, high-wire, fire-breathing circus of a book. * Frank Cottrell-Boyce, Children's Laureate *
Sin Bin Island is a wonderfully funny adventure, filled with bright ideas and some bold surprises. Doug Naylor's humour is a delight and a reassurance, propelling young readers through this treasure hunt of epic proportions. * P. G. Bell, author of The Train to Impossible Places *
I was laughing out loud from the very first pages. I simply loved it! The Russian Dolls - inspired! The friendships, the challenges, loved all of it. A book that I now ABSOLUTELY recommend to anyone over the age of 7! So please Doug and publishers I am now eagerly awaiting book 2 because this is the start of what I hope will be a superb series! * Fiona Sharp, Independent Book Reviews *
This is an exceptional adventure story, one that I think many children will enjoy. From the humour, adventure, friendship and secrets - it is a treasure chest of a story! * Erin Lyn Hamilton, My Shelves Are Full *
