Janine and the Carnival
Jennifer Northway
A little girl going to her first Notting Hill carnival with her dad gets lost in the crowd. Her excitement, involvement, fear and relief are mirrored in charming and absolutely believable pictures and text. Everybody responds naturally and normally and the moral, about not going off on your own, is slipped in without any effort. Any young children would enjoy this and would be reassured and supported by it. Highly recommended and much enjoyed.
