Thanks to mumsnet and Piccadilly for our copy of Martha Mayhem. I have been reading it to my six year old son and we are about halfway through. He is finding it very funny and loves the illustrations. The language is very lively and fun to read with all the imagery, and the character of Martha is brilliant. we will definitely look out for more in the series!

My little boy enjoyed the book. We read it together as our bedtime book. Some of the words were quite complex for him so reading it with him was useful. It was a nice book to read.
