I was sent this book by Boolino
. It is written by Jackie Marchant and is illustrated by Loretta Schauer, this paperback will appeal to children around the ages of 7-11 years and has an inviting front cover, which is mainly in red.
The book has 194 pages but the way the story reads, it would make a good book for a reluctant reader, as it entices the reader to keep reading in order to discover what is going to happen. It is humorous in parts and contains black and white sketches throughout.
Dougal Daley is published by Wacky Bee books and retails at £6.99.
I would recommend this book to parents, who wish to encourage their children to read more.
Disclosure: I was gifted this book for the purpose of the review but all opinions are my own.
As always comments/questions are welcome
