An absolutely brilliant humorous story for children from age 6 August 18, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Harry is a friendly little centipede who lives with his mum, Belinda, and has a best friend George. They live in tunnels under the ground in a hot damp country and mustn't go to the no-top-world where the hoo-mins live because they are so dangerous. The book tells the story of Harry and George's first forays into the no-top-world and their adventures along a forbidden tunnel which to a dangerous underground chamber which is liable to flood. The story is fast-paced with some fun "centipedish" vocabulary thrown in like belly-crawler (snake) and the big-yellow-ball in the sky which the children love to work out. There are short chapters and appealing scattered line drawings so the story doesn't feel too heavy-going and the creepy-crawlies feel friendly and fun. It's perfect to read aloud to infant children or to be read alone by an older child - my son, 5, and daughter, 7 loved it. You never know, they may even pick up a little natural history along the way. A good book to read after the `Owl who was afraid of the dark', and if your child likes the funky phrases, try Donaldson: The Giant and the Joneses next.
