We got hold of a promotional copy of this on Children's book day. My daughter and I were both keen to read it after hearing about it from the publisher.
We were not disappointed.
Lizzie is a spirited character. She is a bit reminiscent of a young Eliza Doolittle, with her 'Garn' and other Cockney phrases. {Incidentally, my mother was a genuine Cockney, and Lizzie's voice is pretty accurate.} The characters are all well rounded and realistic. The story is well paced.
It was a good read - one we are thinking of using with our Chatterbooks groups once it is readily available. It will appeal to both girls and boys, and is worth a read for adults too.
Highly recommended… (altro)
