ellalouise99 's review for:
Sam & Dave Dig a Hole
by Mac Barnett
A funny book about two friends who decide to dig a hole. Their dog accompanies them and always seems to know where the treasure is while the two boys always manage to miss it. The reader can see the diamonds which brings the humour that children would enjoy. The book could simply be read as a class read-aloud story with children enjoying the funny side. It could also be linked to PSHE and the idea that if you keep going and work as a team you will get to the result you want. The ending is quite bizarre but I think children would enjoy coming up with stories to explain how they ended up back at home. Some younger children may not even notice the fact that they fell down but ended up where they started, this could be an interesting discussion point which links to science. A nice book to read in KS1.
