Four Children and It by Jacqueline Wilson - review

'A brilliant book, it must be read by Jacqueline Wilson fans'

A truly brilliant book. Really! It is! And now I will tell you why ...

This book starts off with the main character, Rosalind, reading a book called Five Children and It. But her really annoying step-sister, Smash, hates reading (very unlike you budding readers) and teases Rosalind for it.

One day, though, when the family (Step-mum, Dad, Smash, Rosalind, Maudie and Robbie) take a picnic in Oxshott woods, they find something much unexpected …

The 'It' from Five Children and It! And this 'It' they've found, it grants wishes!!!

Rosalind's family and It go on amazing adventures together, and manage to actually become more a family than they were before!

A brilliant book, it must be read by Jacqueline Wilson fans.
