A children’s book, written in rhyme and nicely illustrated, this is an early reader, designed to be read with a parent. The text flows well, with a real rhythm to it, the use of alliteration makes it easy for children to read, and the puns are funny. The images are suitable for young children and displayed nicely on the kindle.
To be really picky, one rhyme doesn’t quite work in some English accents (‘fall’ and ‘ghoul’), and the pale text used for the word ghost is hard to read on the kindle, but that is just nitpicking. Overall it is a good children’s book for this time of year.

Chumbalina The Plump Princess
A short story with a princess who saves the day, makes new friends and becomes the toast of the kingdom? With gorgeous pictures? There are little girls out there who will adore this, especially since she doesn't change who she is to do it.
Adam's Big Horses
Board book format would be far better for this otherwise excellent book for children learning to read.
Thaddeus Whiskers and the Dragon
...this lively, enjoyable, story is one children will love whether it is read by them or to them.

I am always looking for more interesting and ones that are a little unconventional, and this sounds like it really fits that mold so I am interested to read this one. I like a good rhyme scheme, and good illustrations are always a plus.

This sounds like a wonderful book to add to my daughter's collection. She loves reading books that have bright and vivid illustrations. She also loves books that have rhymes and I know she's going to love reading this one too.
