The Owl and the Pussycat and The Further Adventures of the Owl and the Pussycat :: A Book Review ::
Posted by vicki brown on
The Owl and the Pussycat is one of my favourite childhood rhymes. I adore the sillyness of it all, but I'm not sure I'd ever read it to Milo before we were sent these new editions to review. Milo loves a rhyming story and many of Julia Donaldson's other stories regularly make their way into our bedtime reading pile.
These two books, beautifully illustrated by Charlotte Voake, contain the original story by Edward Lear in the first with a foreword by Julia Donaldson and the second is a brand new sequel to the original The Further Adventures of the Owl and the Pussycat
written by Julia Donaldson herself.
written by Julia Donaldson herself.Milo loved listening to both stories and really enjoyed the sillyness, especially 'the Pobble with no toes' who appears in the new story.
Julia Donaldson has done a reasonably good job of creating a sequel which feels similar to the first, though I can't lie, it somehow seems a little forced and an unnecessary addition to me, but that may simply be because I'm so familiar with Edward Lear's classic. Milo however really enjoyed it.

My testimony on how I became a member of the Illuminati. Lord Felix helped me get my life back from the death stage. Discharged after about 2 years and six months. After being betrayed by so many members of the Illuminati. Over the years I was hopeless and financially on the ground. But one day while browsing the internet, I came across the post by the Great Member of the Illuminati Lord Felix and said that if you were one of the great Illuminati members, you can be famous, rich and successful in life. I contacted him and I explained everything to him and he recommended the registration used and I paid for the big member to get me started and I was initiated into the World Order of the Illuminati. After that, they gave me all the guidelines and let me know that after initiation new members will be rewarded with the sum of $2,000,000 in cash. With the help of Lord Felix. I was fully initiated as a full member of the Illuminati. My advice is that if you’ve tried a scammer before. It’s up to trying Lord Morgan. It’s your best chance to become what you want in your future life. Contact him by WhatsApp +2348168034022
