The woods by Rob Hodgson


Me and Charlotte decided we would read this book while sat in traffic (we were on public transport not driving). Charlotte chose this one as she loved the cover and wanted to know more. It isn't a long book and so she was able to read it aloud without annoying too many people. The characters are well presented and not just identical, they each had their own look. The way the story progresses was easy to follow along with the pictures. Most of the words were easy to read and so the story flowed without needing to stop and sound out the words and asking for explanations. That was until near the end when the word 'numskull' was used. This wasn't a word Charlotte had come across before and so I had to explain to her what it meant. Over all the book was cute, flowed well and entertaining with the twist at the end.

Charlotte's views:
"I liked the way the story says there is no rabbits but you can find rabbits hiding in the pictures. It was funny when the fox fell in the water. I really like the rabbits in the end. I want to read more like this book."

Highly recommended, great for young children and young readers.
