Puffling in a Pickle

Margaret Ryan
Illustrated by Trevor Dunton
(Puffin Books)
978-0140370621, RRP £3.99, Paperback
5-8 Infant/Junior
Buy "Puffling in a Pickle (Ready, Steady, Read!)" on Amazon

One from Puffin's very well produced 'ready, steady, read!' series. This is a satisfyingly chunky book for young fluent readers who want a 'chapter book' with an engaging character. There are two shortish, but complete, chapters with a nice joke about getting lost in each story and the text is interspersed by plenty of pictures. It's good to see more attention to high quality paper and printing, leaving only colour to be desired.
