Pegasus Elliot Mackenzie publishers kindly sent the following books for review:

ALITTLE RED DRAGON CALLED LOLO:

This sweet little book is written in rhyming text, which is great as it makes the the story more intersting for adults to read and children can sometimes predict the next word which encourages a life long love of literature and helps with learning to read in the years ahead.

The book has 40 pageswith each having a bright, vibrant illustration.

It tells the tale of Lolo, a dragon who is desparate to leave his secluded cave home to discover the world and make some new friends.

Children will love hearing about his adventures and discovering if Lolo does find some friends.

A little red dragon called Lolo retails at £6.99 and is aimed at pre- school aged children.

THE ADVENTURES OF BLACKILOCKS AND LITLE LEGS:

This longer book has 170 pages over15 chapters ; perfect as a bedtime story for reading a chapter every night before settling down to sleep.

It is written through the eyes of 2 toddlers as they grow into children.

Children listening to the book will recognise the magical contents of animals that can talk and the adults reading the book will be taken back to their own innocent days of childhood.

The contents of this book is mostly text, but there are also a few black and white sketches scattered through the chapters.

The adventures of Blackilocks and Little Legs is written by Dsvid K. Cleak.

It retails at £7.99 and is aimed at parents, grandparents and carers to share with their pre-reader aged children.

THE LAUNDRY MONSTER:

This comical book tells the story of Charlie, the messiest child around,

Children will be delighted to hear what happens when his dirty laundry becomes a monster.

The text inside this book is also rhyming adding to the exciting taleof the book.

The Laundry Monster is written by Ksenia & Brett Sylvia the brilliant illustrations throughout the book are by Austin Kimmell.

This book retails at £7.99 and is aimed at children up to the age of 8 years ( although I’m sure a wider age range would enjoy and even relate to Charlie!)

Disclosure: I was sent the books for the purpose of the review, but all opinions are my oen.

I love all of the above books so am, therefore recommending them to parents and carers; they would make great additions to book shelves everywhere.
