When Amy Wild goes to live at her great-aunt's tea room on the island of Clamerkin, Granty, her great aunt, welcomes her with a very special necklace - a necklace that gives Amy the power to talk to animals. Granty's terrier, Hilton, immediately introduces Amy to the Clan - a group of animals whose job is to protect the island and keep it a happy place to live. But the Clan cats are suspicious about their prospective new member, and Amy must prove herself to win their trust. Ever wondered what your pet is really thinking? Animal lovers everywhere will be instantly enchanted by this Dr. Doolittle for a new generation.
This is a lovely simple little story which little girls will loveThis could easily be a gentle bedtime story for younger children, but slightly older (7+8yrs old) will probably enjoy reading these themselves. It taps into the idea of cuddly little animals on the cover which will make the books instantly appealing, and then the whole Doctor Dolittle idea of being able to understand what animals actually have to say. on top of that there is friendship and mysteries to be solved. This should be a winning series with young girls. The illustrations are simple but convey everything they need to and immediately make this book feel like something comfortable to read! * Soteria Magazine *
