mehsi's review against another edition
4.0
It is time for a new Ten Minutes to Bed, this time featuring two adorable dragons named Flicker and Flash!
I came across this book in the library, it was the Dutch edition. I just couldn’t resist though, I really enjoy these Ten Minutes to Bed stories, they are cute and adorable and fun and sweet, and well, you just want to read them!
In this one we meet the little dragons named Flicker and Flash! They are having the greatest time, zooming, fire breathing, playing, but then it is time for bedtime! They are having so much fun though + they find an egg, so will they make it in time? I just loved Flicker and Flash, I love how they just keep on playing. Just like little kids will always do. Because there is still a bit of time so let’s cram in as much fun and playtime as we can! Which is just adorable! And Flicker and Flash are just adorable! I love that they are siblings.
Each book makes me want to explore the lands more. I mean, we have a map at the beginning (with several characters from other books on it), but Flicker and Flash flying around shows us a lot of the land and I just wanted to hop into the story and fly along with them, or hop along with the unicorns, or swim with the mermaids. There is just too much fun here!
The illustrations are so pretty. You really want to just frame them on the wall!
As I already said in earlier reviews for the series, it never feels like 10 minutes are left. I mean the things these little ones do take WAY more than 10 minutes. For instance in this one our duo has so much fun and goes away from their home quite a bit, then also find an egg and have to bring that big egg back. Even with the power of magic, that is just not going to happen.
All in all, I want more of this series! I will have to see if my libraries have other books in Dutch. I would recommend this book to all, it is fun, yes, the 10 minute thing is not working, but the rest is a lot of cuteness and makes for a great bedtime read~
