Cressida Cowell

[seeker]

Please can everyone with boys aged 6-8ish rush out and get a Cressida Cowell book "How to Train your Dragon" is the first one. They are so funny and anarchic and warm hearted. Everything a book should be - unlike the mean spirited nastiness that is Horrid Henry!

I've got lots brand new for £4.80 delivered. Just email me at [email protected]
Thanks

oh they are utterly fantastic (my eldest is 10 and adoring them as is 7-yr-old) We now have complete set and are saving up for David Tennant reading them on audio books.

£4.19 at Amazon (free delivery if you spend £15)

if you lot are going to use this thread to make loadsa money, perhaps I should retract and say, ''nah, crap books, don't bother!!''

Yes my boys love these books too. They seem to appeal over a wide range of ages.

The writing-style is not easy (more difficult than Horrid Henry), but because of the presentation, pictures, and of course the humour, children are able to tackle it relatively young - say age 7 or even 6 for fluent readers.

I also know 12 yr-olds who still enjoy reading them!

We also have a full set - in a 'well-read' condition.
But they are definitely not for sale - the boys would lynch me

The Emily Brown books she does are fantastic too, both my DDs love them. ("His name's NOT Bunny Wunny, it's STANLEY") Great.

Didn't know about Emily Brown - will investigate. (and no, lucymack, I don't need any help in the investigation process!!!!!

Bookpeople have Emily Brown v cheap atm, Seeker. It is FANTASTIC.

i HATED those dragon books as did ds2
