MY REVIEW
I loved this story! It's filled with kindness, happiness and the joy of friendship. The beautifully colourful illustrations add to the magic of this lovely book. Joy is an exceptional dog and the best 'furriend' anyone could wish for. With her gift and London's kind heart, the two make a perfect pair. I can see London and Joy sharing many adventures together, and there being many more books in the London Learns series for children to enjoy. Thank you, Aishah!
MY NEXT REVIEW
23rd June - Sea Shaken, the next episode in the Castleby Series by J M Simpson. Having read the rest of the series, I can't wait for this!
Hollywood darling Cassie Warner is tragically killed three weeks before Christmas in a car crash on the outskirts of Castleby. Her daughter, Tabatha, narrowly survives the crash. Detective Steve Miller suspects foul play and discovers evidence confirming he is dealing with a murder enquiry.
Local crime mafiosi, Mickey and Pearl Camorra’s empire is at risk from rival gangs who plan to take over. Anxious to avoid a violent and bloody turf war Detective Miller reluctantly supports them to keep control.
Ex-soldier Foxy takes in a troubled loved one and does all he can to help, but the odds are stacked against him.
As Detective Miller investigates the crash, he discovers a broken family with a long history of neglect and abuse. Digging deeper, he is faced with five potential suspects, but who is really to blame?
Murder, obsession, intrigue and suspense continue in the fourth of the Castleby Series.
WOW. I'm hooked already! 📖
