Aimed as much at the adult reader as the child it entertains, this book – no it is a book – does not text, tweet or scroll but is still good and important fun.
Monkey has to convince Jackass the validity and enjoyment that can be gained from reading a good book.
There has been some dissension from parents online regarding this book – most probably whilst clutching their own Kindles- disdainfully questioning who the book is really aimed at. But, this book is perfect for children age four year upwards as each generation becomes more tech savvy earlier that ever.
Best of all...
Intelligent and witty
Could improve…
Nothing
Basically…
A great book for young children who are probably already fed up with their parents logging into Mumsnet from the check out, Tweeting on the toilet, or Farmvilling on Facebook while the dinner burns.
