Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )
Polly and the Puffin: 03 The New Friend is the third story about this unusual duo. Jenny Colgan has written another sweet little tale that young children will enjoy. I would say that it is suitable from around age 3, and upwards. At 3, you are most likely to be reading it to your child, but by the age of 4 or 5, they should cope with it by themselves. It is very simplistically written, and littered with beautiful pictures too.

I am not quite sure where this book is aimed at - it seems too simple to be an early reader chapter book, and is devoid of actual chapters. It also seems a bit too 'bookish' for a young child to sit and 'read' with their parent. As such, I think it is best used as a bedtime story for children aged 3 and up.

Inside the book are a selection of facts, jokes, activities and recipes. I did find some of the suggested activities to be quite fun, as did my girls. We couldn't attempt to make the recipes, due to severe allergies, so my eldest daughter was quite disappointed in this. Other children may love to partake in the making, and eating, of these recipes.

Overall, the book is a sweet little thing, but a lot shorter than it looks, as half of it is taken up with the aforementioned activities. My daughters did not love this book, hence the four star rating, but they did enjoy it. Perhaps, if there had been less of the activities, and more story, they would have enjoyed it more. I still would recommend it though, and it is possible that the activities may be a bonus for those who have children that are reluctant readers.
