      Reception


      Lost and Found has been favorably received. Kirkus Reviews wrote "Readers who (inexplicably) find David Lawrence’s Pickle and Penguin (2004) just too weird may settle in more comfortably with this—slightly—less offbeat friendship tale." and Publishers Weekly called it "beguiling" and described it as a "...gently humorous and heartwarming tale of friendship found, lost and regained" Inis magazine of Children's Books Ireland described it "a very special book which I am sure will become a favourite with 3 to 4-year-olds. It also offers wide scope for discussion in the playschool/infant classroom." while Book Trust wrote " it is a visual delight, and its themes of loneliness and friendship will resonate with young readers."
      Common Sense Media found the movie adaption "appropriate for all ages and doesn't contain anything questionable."


      Theatre


      A stage version of Lost and Found, for children aged 3 and above has been created by Travelling Light and Polka Theatre. It was performed at the historic Jacksons Lane theatre in Highgate, London in April 2011.
