Spells by
Emily Gravett
ISBN: 978-0-230-01492-3 £10.99
A love-lorn frog and
some very mixed-up spells!
Once upon a time, a frog
found a book. After reading “Spell to become a Handsome Prince” on a page
fragment he tried to piece the spell back together . . .
There are lots of
laugh-out-loud moments to be had with the mix-and-match pages as Frog
struggles through a host of jumbled spells and extraordinary guises (Rabbit?
Fabbit?! Prabbit!?!) in search of his fairytale ending.
Another wonderfully
inventive book from the creator of WOLVES, winner of the Kate Greenaway
Medal and the Nestlé Children’s Book Prize Bronze Award.
Totz2teens Member Review: Emily Gravett has done it again with
a delightfully simple and easy to read book. This is probably for the
older young children as they may not understand the spell changing which we
found hysterical. My 4 year old found it funny and kept going
backwards and forwards making different creatures. I liked the
simplicity of the colours in the drawings which made it seem more
mysterious. Great book.
