Freya & I wrote this for the Guardian Children’s Books Family Reviews
This book both surprised and delighted us. Bella takes her dog for a walk only to find it disappears off the page. The same fate awaits all who come to help and even Bella herself. Luckily this is the perfect opportunity for the reader to come to the rescue and Freya had great fun lending a helping hand.
This is an inventive book making use of the guttering to make the characters disappear then inviting the reader to give the book a good shake to get everyone out again. Freya was very pleased with herself when she shook the book and turned the page to see all the characters re-appear. I liked the cheeky nature of the book especially the ending.
A perfect smile inducing book.
