Product reviews...
This has to be one of the wierdest bedtime story books I have encountered since Dr Seuss!
As something suitable to read to children, I guess there is nothing wrong with it, and my son sure thought it was "really funny, daddy"... but it just struck me as something really strange indeed.
You could think of it as "Footrot Flats" meets "Dr Doolittle"...
Overall, your kids will love it, and you will probably find it entertaining too. :)
Random listing from 'Books'...
Lara's life is almost perfect, especially now she has a best friend of her own, Tanya. She's given up her matchmaking ways and has promised not to interfere in other kids' lives again.
But it's hard to resist the urge to meddle when there are so many unhappy children at school. The Friendship Matchmaker Goes Undercover is a funny and pitch-perfect snapshot of schoolyard affairs.
