The Jamie and Angus Stories
Illustrator: Penny DaleThese six short stories about Jamie and his toy bull Angus are delightfully told. Everyday happenings in their lives such as bedtime, and a wedding are related warmly by Anne Fine, who shows that she is equally able to penetrate the minds of very young children as well as any other age range for which she writes. The drawings by Dale are sympathetic and a delight to look at; the length of the stories make them perfect for reading at bedtime, or for any other time. I greatly recommend this book.
