Flora the Fairy
Illustrator: Emma CarlowWhen Flora visits her much loved Nana and Grandpop, she is enabled – with the timely application of some old face paints and just a touch of magic from her grandparents’ wands – to overcome her feline phobia and feel at ease with Rufus, their resident moggy, having experienced things from a cat’s point of view.
This title is one of a series ‘for first readers’, whatever that might mean. Essentially it is one story divided into three chapters, rather than three stories as the cover indicates. However, to get much satisfaction out of this story, one would need to read it all the way through rather than in the three bites provided. Speech bubbles, colour illustrations on every page and approachable looking text make this appear an inviting book for readers wanting another format to try alongside picture books but they won’t find the depth offered by many of the latter.
