Moth … is another picture book with inbuilt growing room, an introduction to the concept of evolution in language both scientific and poetic, full of thrill and peril. … Thomas's spare text and back matter elegantly develop the book's twin themes of survival and hope.”

Times Literary Supplement, Times Literary Supplement

Moth … is a stunning visual experience. The narrative is simple – the life and evolution of the Peppered Moth. It is not a fictional story but it shows that facts can also inspire the imagination. This is how information can really excite. Magical.

Ferelith Hordon, Books for Keeps

A gorgeous blend of text and illustrations and a wonderfully successful introduction to nonfiction for younger readers

Maggie Reagan, Booklist

A rare pleasure … a true story of adaptation and hope.
