Advantages: Lots of adventure

Disadvantages: kipper can be hard to find

Kipper is one of my daughter favourite characters, yet I find it so hard to purchase things concerning him as in toys or books these days considering he seems to be quite an old character. I find my local library a good place to go when on the hunt for a new kipper book. As you have probably realised from my previous reviews, I am a big fan of the library and I take my daughter there a lot. On a recent visit, we came across a new addition there. It was a story by Mick Inkpen and the book was called one year with kipper.

The book is written with a description and a picture on each page that shows what kipper and his friend tiger get up to on each month of the year. We start obviously with January where kipper explains about making a new years resolution not to throw any more snowballs at his friend tiger. He later breaks his resolution in February where the two decide to have a snowball fight. Each month the guys get up to lots of mischief and excitement as they visit the ponds and the ducks as well as kipper taking a parachute ride above the sea. They pick blackberries and catch tadpoles and get ready to make there own pumpkin to celebrate Halloween. On each month kipper takes a photo to remember the good times that the pair had.

In December kipper uses his photos to make a surprise scrapbook for tigerwhich is full of photos of the pair having fun together throughout the year. Tiger loves his present and the pair have fun looking back over the photos and remembering the fun and adventures thay had that year.

This story really is full of adventure and I like the fact that children can associate events by the month such as Christmas and Halloween. I would definitely recommend this book especially if you have a child who likes kipper.

Summary: a lovely story for kipper fans
