Riley, Kylie and Smiley

Malachy Doyle
 Fran Evans
(Pont Books)
48pp, 978-1843231189, RRP £3.50, Paperback
5-8 Infant/Junior
Buy "Riley, Kylie and Smiley (Pont readalone)" on Amazon

Keeping up the high standard of the books in the Pont 'Readalone' series comes this delightful tale of summer holiday fun. Riley, Kylie, and Smiley are three friends who enjoy their time together; first they are catching crabs, then there is ice cream to enjoy, then sandcastles. And so the day continues, until it is time to race off home for dinner. The illustrations by Evans set the tone for a light-hearted book that children will enjoy reading, and Doyle's observations are witty and always true to life. I recommend this book warmly.
