Griselda F.G.M.

Margaret Ryan
Illustrated by John Eastwood
(Puffin Books)
978-0140361018, RRP £3.25, Paperback
5-8 Infant/Junior
Buy "Griselda F.G.M. (Young Puffin Story Books)" on Amazon

One of those cosy little stories about modernised fairy godmothers whose spells keep going wrong with ultimately happy consequences. Griselda is an uncommonly youthful member of the sorority: she wears disintegrating jeans, carries an electronic watch and a multi-coloured mouse, and directs her shambolic magic through disco dancing. Her adventures are rhythmically organised into chapters with repetitive introductions. A cheerful and accessible book for newly independent readers.
