The Blurb On The Back:
Meet Amelia Fang.
The bravest little vampire in the kingdom!
It’s the school half-moon holiday in gloomy Nocturnia and Amelia is going to spend it with her Rainbow Rangers troop on Sugarplum Island!
But whilst exploring, Amelia and her friends are magically shrunk to the size of bugs! How will they make the BIG journey to break the curse when they are all so very TINY?
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
The fourth in Laura Ellen Anderson’s AMELIA FANG SERIES for children aged 7+ is another charming, self-illustrated Gothic fantasy read about friendship and lost love, which is surprisingly moving and has some funny moments (particularly the slug queen mistaken for a sofa). For me, Squashy and Pumpy the pumpkins are the out-and-out stars but I keep wishing that there was more for Florence and Grimaldi to do as they fade into the background.
AMELIA FANG AND THE HALF-MOON HOLIDAY was released in the United Kingdom on 7th March 2019. Thanks to the Amazon Vine Programme for the review copy of this book.
