Advantages: Catchy book children love to read along to

Disadvantages: none

This is a brilliant book but to be honest if i see Julia Donaldson's name on a book i now know it will be brilliant as we have worked our way through so many of her books. My little boy is 3 and knows a fair few of Julia Donaldsons books word for word because they are so fun and exciting for young children. This book would be best suited to children aged between 2 and 7 in my opinion yet im a lot older than 7 and i love it lol.

The witch is riding on her broom along with her cat as the wind picks up and blows off her hat, they fly to the ground and search for the hat but no hat can be found. When out from the bushes a dog finds the hat and asks if there is room on the broom for him. The witch says yes and the dog, the cat and the witch fly off, this time the wind blows off the bow from the witches plait and a bird finds it and ask if there is any room on the broom. Of course the witch says yes and they all fly off but the witch drops her wand, a frog finds the wand and yes the frog then gets on the broom. They all fly off and the broom snaps in two they all fall off the broom but a dragon finds the witch and plans to have 'witch and chips' for his tea when out from a ditch a terrible creature with four heads appears and scares the dragon off, of course the terrible creature is really the cat, the dog, the bird and the frog and they make a new broomstick and all fly off once more.

Again this book is a rhyming book written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Scheffler, the rrp is £5.99 but is available for under £4.00 in a lot of places. Definatly worth reading it is a very good book.
