My daughter watches this programme on television. We bought her two of these books for her birthday. She was totally engrossed in the book and wouldn’t put it down. This is a girl who was finding other books boring and she couldn’t get into them but this was the exception.

My son loves the program. So I got him an operation ouch book as a stocking filler. He loved it so much I have since got him more books. Hoping they do some more.

Not bad condition,price very good so no complaints,difficult book to get hold of.
by PLP
A solid success with my daughter who loves the show and the book manages to portray their voices well, of limited educational value in itself but led to some engaged discussions with 7 year old.
by MISS
Simple yet informative with great experiments to try.
I might read their book for grown ups next – I mean I’m in my late 30s but usually find adult non-fiction books rather dry. But these kids books were so well written and entertaining that I have added the other to my reading list.
