First line: On an ordinary day…in a classroom after school…in the real, waking world…Lilli and her two best friends were on a quest.

Genre: quest, adventure, science

Age: 5-7

What’s it all about? This is an interactive story with eight different quests throughout, which the reader needs to solve using various different stickers. Overall the three main characters are trying to find Lord Grumble, who has stolen the sun and plunged questland into darkness. I read this book with my eight year old son, so I’ll start with his review first. He said that he enjoyed the story and the different challenges; however the challenges were probably made for someone who is 6 or 7. He didn’t dislike any of the book and wouldn’t make any changes to the story or concept. I love the idea behind the interactiveness of the book and I agree with my son, it’s more for the 6/7 age range. I was wondering at first why there were so many stickers available at the back of the book, but in the end it was quite easy to peel off the ones you need to, so it could be used again and again. The only suggestion I would make is that the answers to all the quests are located at the back of the book before the stickers, so it’s hard for a child to not look at the answers when getting a sticker to use in the quests!!! A great idea for a story and I look forward to reading more, or at least, seeing more in the future!

Thank you to LoveReading4schools for my review copy.
