— Appears in: Magpies : Talking About Books for Children , September vol. 32 no. 4 2017; (p. 31)

— Review of Baby Band Diane Jackson Hill , 2017 single work picture book

'Baby Band begins by distancing readers whilst simultaneously intriguing them: 'The apartment block loomed cold and quiet. The same people had lived there for a long time. They did not know each other and they never spoke - not even to say hello.' Even though the building and its inhabitants are unwelcoming, the loose lined, colour-splotched illustrations intimate change. A baby arrives to disturb the strained peace and he certainly shakes up both his mother and the occupants of every apartment.' (Introduction)
