Frog and Toad Together must be the best 80p worth around at the moment. It contains five short stories about the irresistible pair. Don't miss this book on any account - it's an absolute must for all children learning to read. Syd Hoff's books have great appeal for young readers so these two, one the story of a lonely Red Indian boy, and the other about an albatross who becomes the good luck mascot of a crew of sailors, will be very popular. The latter is a shorter story as is another favourite, A Kiss for Little Bear. The above will all help readers to discover the delights offered by books which Andrew and his friends discover in Tell Me Some More. Very much an 'also ran' as far as this series is concerned, No Funny Business tells what a cat does when his owners go off on a picnic.
