"'We'll never be bad again!' Said Hop, solemnly.
'Never,' said Skip.
'Never, never, never,' Said Jump."

This book was a really important one to me when I was young. So finding it again after it being missing for years and years was like uncovering treasure. My mum used to read me this book, an uncountable amount of times, when I was a little girl. The book itself is now in pretty bad condition, but its priceless to me. Its faded, stong smelling pages. The lady bug sticker still on the front from where I put it there probaboy 15 years ago. The spine folding in on itself. Pages taped together. While the story is wonderful, ths physical copy of this book is a real gift to me.

This book is really fun to read, even as an adult. The three brownies, Hop, Skip, & Jump, go on many unique adventures throughout this book, and meet lots of friends along the way. Not only do they find a way back into Brownie Town, they also learn how to be better brownies. This is a fantastic and fun story to read to your young ones, with pictures in the book too (which I coloured in), its very engaging! Its a compilation of short adventures, so its good for bed time stories!

All together I am giving this book four stars out of 5!
