An exciting new collaboration between the Roald Dahl Funny Prize-winning author Peter Bently and the incredibly talented illustrator John Bond! Review: Great book. - Funny and well written. One of my favourites to read to my little boy. I've since bought it as a gift for friends and families children. Review: Rhymes/ cadence is off, feels like lazy writing. - You will find that the rhymes and cadence are off, especially if you are from North America. The way this is read out loud can be changed to accommodate for the accent differences on some of the words, but the way it flows is just plan awful on some of the pages. Some sentences have a bunch of extra syllables due to longer sentences that make it not flow in rhyme with the previous sentence. Would 100% recommend "Cats in Chaos" by this author, but this one is a bit of a flop. Even my toddler picked up on it. It doesnt flow and, in some parts, just seems like lazy writing.
