Today, Charlotte (and Mummy) take over the reins for a review of a very special book in aid of Children in Need. So take it away, Charlotte (with a bit of help from Mummy!)
When Fi-Rex eats the
gooey green sweetie lots of exciting things happen and she goes to many
different places.
Some of the lands are scary as you think she won't get home
again but others are great.
My best bit was being friends with the duck because he
was really friendly and Gary Barlow. But the really best bit was the name of
the bands, Pond Direction and Quack That.
I laughed and ran up stairs to tell
mummy the names!
I liked all the signatures on each page so I know who wrote
which page, some are very strange pages like Keith Lemon’s.
I think this book will appeal to people of my age or a bit
younger (7), mostly girls I think but mummies and daddies will like some pages
(Mummy and Daddy said they liked the Frog Song)."
It's an interesting idea, celebrities like Sir Paul McCartney, Rod Stewart, Jools and Jamie Oliver and (gulp) Keith Lemon picking up the threads of a story from each other - ably illustrated by Julia Patton.
Charlotte gives this a firm thumbs up!
"The Curious Tale of Fi-Rex" is available now from Fat Fox Books.
