More great reads: the best books for 7 year olds
In a nutshell: tune in for more hilarious radio-show action
Christian O’Connell follows up his debut with another laugh-out-loud story starring junior radio DJ Spike. Spike, sidekick Artie and producer Holly are happily broadcasting from Spike’s garden shed and have a loyal audience, but will their show’s highlights - the highly illegal cat hunt, that time they caused a Christmas-present explosion and the embarrassing parent phone-in – be good enough to win Spike the chance to star on a real radio show?
As usual, life at home complicates things: his grandad is determined to enter the same competition, while Dad’s band has been chosen to appear on a TV talent show. The plot is packed with funny scenes, and O’Connell - apparently effortlessly - makes the book as friendly and direct as his radio show.
He’s certainly on the same wavelength as the book’s intended audience and with its brilliant illustrations by Rob Biddulph this will be another hit.
Readers will also enjoy Harry Hill’s real-life show-biz inspired comedy Matt Millz. ~ Andrea Reece
