A great book for guided reading - 4*

I have really enjoyed reading this and so I am glad that this was our choice for guided reading for the last half-term.

I only taught the Wine of Li Po (which I am now sick of) and The Ship of Bones. I know my class also studied The Wooden City and enjoyed that.

I can't believe this is written by the guy, who was in Monty Python. He is so talented and this is so accessible for eight and nine-year-olds.

My only regret is that I couldn't read the whole book because of time but I'd definitely come back to this.

The fairy tales are all very inventive and fun to read. The fantastic stories were a bit less to my liking, but still very enjoyable.
