Round the Twist
(Puffin Books)
978-0140363548, RRP £3.99, Paperback
8-10 Junior/Middle
'Pink Bow Tie' and 'Nails', two previously published stories, have been re-formatted in picture-book style complete with 'Sprdionng|'s', 'Spranng's' and every other gimmick in the cartoonist's armoury. More are threatened in this TV tie-in series. I hope this doesn't set a trend with other short stories; I enjoyed visualising the utterly bizarre nature of these originals and here it's all done for me - a bit lack lustrely, too.
