A Review By Charlotte Nash

This is another adventure for Charlie and Lola with Sizzles the dog. In this case Sizzles is a finger puppet, which makes for great hands-on entertainment and attention capturing reading. Lauren Child has created great entertaining visuals within this book, as well as generated a repetitive pattern throughout, making the book easy to familiarize with for the younger generation of readers. As well as this it is easy to digest for the slightly more confident reader. Overall it is hugely imaginative and particularly engaging for adult and child.

 A quick note about the beautiful hardback editions of the children’s classics, with their intricate designs and covers which help to regain the modern child’s interest in these wonderful classic novels. These are great as school prizes, or birthday presents as they are particularly unique and create a more special gift than a normal book.
