More great reads: the best books for 7 year olds
In a nutshell: funny, inventive story – watch out for what’s lurking under the bed!
In a nice twist on the Pied Piper story, the children of Whiffington wake up one morning to discover that all the grown-ups have disappeared, stolen away in the night by – what? Amidst the chaos of unmade beds, unbrushed teeth and unwashed dishes, Lucy Dungston is determined to rescue her mum, even when she realises that the revolting Creakers are the kidnappers. There isn’t a child in the land who hasn’t imagined something lurking under the bed, and the idea of the bumbling, muttering, smelly Creakers will give them a delicious thrill.
It’s a fun adventure with a great set of lively young characters and some very exciting scenes. ~ Andrea Reece
