Last year we were lucky enough to receive a copy of Dogs Loves Books which is Louise Yates last book. It's a brilliant read and one of our bedtime favourites, so when we got the chance to review her new one I was delighted.
Frank and Teddy Make Friends tells the tale of Professor Frank Mouse a clever inventor who enjoys collecting and mending things, he is very lonely and wants a friend to help. One day he makes teddy, however he isn't very good at sharing and so they fall out.Its then, when he realises the importance of friendship and how wonderful it is to share.
We have been reading this for the past couple of nights to Fifi (Boy wont let us read it to him as he seems to have developed a fear of mice). She is enjoying it, in particular the illustrations which we have to spend a great deal of time looking at and discussing.
I love the way that the story is somehow so innocent but conveys the message directly.The illustrations are wonderful and it's quite an unusual style for this sort of book. Unique and original, me and Fifi love it! You can get a copy here.
