The BookViral Review:
In another new adventure featuring Pippin the poodle, Julia Seaborn introduces her young audience to all things snow, with some fun facts about emu’s thrown in for good measure!
This exciting snowy tale gives both its young reader and their carer plenty of opportunity for conversation and reminiscence about their own snowy experiences and is crammed full of facts which create the perfect foundation for learning. Complimented by ‘Fun Questions’, ‘Fun Facts’ and a complimentary puzzle to boot, ‘Pippin goes Snowboarding’ is a versatile offering that conveys information in many ways, catering for different learning methodologies.
Seaborn seems to take advantage of every opportunity to teach, counting out chicks and dogs and introducing concepts such as ‘second’ and ‘third’, crafting her story mindfully to build knowledge in a non-threatening and inclusive manner.
As per her usual style, Seaborn packs her story with amusing twists, which are echoed perfectly by thoughtful artistry. However, this is not just a delightful tale. Seaborn weaves many lessons seamlessly between the pages. From failing to determination and success, from embarrassment and fear to reassurance, she demonstrates that relationships trump being the winner and that sharing time, advice and material possessions is the way to build lasting friendships.
Seaborn’s evident experience in working with children is evident in her writing-she really taps into the young mind-engaging them with her plentiful and fast-moving storyline and charismatic characters, complimented by emotionally touching imagery.
With the same furry friends popping up time and time again through the 4 books, lending familiarity and sense of security Pippin Goes Snowboarding is firmly recommended for stories at bedtime and independent reading.
A beautifully imagined Teen & Young Adult US 19th Century Historical Fiction novel, A Summer with the Hermit King proves simply enchanting with Todd creating a rare sense of immediacy as he writes, his characters imbued with a certain vibrancy that elevates them beyond their time and place to bring them achingly to life.
Another superbly entertaining read in the Switch series from Ardie Stallard Queen of the Damnedest takes up Felicia and Joe’s story from The Taming of the Switch and its full-on action from the very start!
Whilst the evolution of self-publishing has proved a genuine boon for readers the bar for publishing has been notably lowered and in no genre more obviously than Literary Fiction.
Never before has the voice of social commentary in literature sung higher. Freedom of speech has brought with it a cacophony of loudly spoken, written and sometimes harshly promoted opinion and judgement.
What makes a memoir so alluring? After all, they are not generally stuffed full with action, suspense, romance or mystery, which provide the highs and lows or other literature.
From Monty python to Dorothy Parker, and even Shakespeare, dark humour and satire has entertained the best of us.
