Migloo's Day by William Bee

A cast of many is introduced in this very busy ‘find it’ book and children with patience and a keen eye will have plenty of fun with it. Migloo is a little dog who goes exploring in Sunnytown, visiting lots of different places that will appeal to children and meeting many people with different jobs.

He is very enthusiastic and his wagging tail is even translated into human language! There is much to look for, including occupations to match with the characters at the start of the book, as well as extra puzzles at the end of the book. This may be an activity book but young kids will also learn a lot as they pore over the colourful illustrations.

Children 2 and up will be very well entertained.
