The Misadventures of Frederick by Ben Manley, Emma Chichester Clark

5.0

A great book telling the story of two children who have very different experiences. The young boy is stuck in his house with his mum and is a very formal in his writing style. The young girl on the other hand is always outside and free, she is a much more child-like character. The children write letters to each other which would be lovely to replicate in the classroom when doing letter writing as children are likely to find the activity fun and exciting. The colours are also interesting to explore in the book with the boys pages being much more dull and dark and the girls bright and colourful. A great text for year 1-year 3 children.
