My daughter adores Sarah and Duck. This was a really nice read, minimal characters and lovely artwork.

"I read this novel, about a man’s seemingly blessed life unravelling as his child self-destructs, in the first few months after my daughter was born. Feeling my love for her as I read about another parent losing his daughter made it all the more intense."

My daughter just loves Maisy at the moment. She also loves buses so this book is a winner.

Interesting and realistic characters
Mother-daughter relationships
I dont usually read contemporary as its not really my thing, but i thought id give it a try.
I really loved this book, very much about mother - daughter relationships.
I loved mia and the ending made me cry.

The artwork is still great but my daughter and I were disappointed with this one. The story made very little sense and the writing just wasn't anything like previous Meg and Mog books. I don't think my daughter will be wanting me to re-read this one to her.
