I think the reviews do help, Tanus, yes. I know I've been put off things by bad ones before.


Consider it done.......shortly. I have not done a review of anything, to date, so I'll need to try and avoid my usual sarcasm and derogetory put-downs. (Get you some more money - keep me in a job! :smt045 )

That lone reviewer, was that one of your aliases, too?

I just ordered Tollins from amazon! I'll convince the hubby its for my son not another book for me, otherwise he'll put me on a book ban again. Which means I have to clear some books out before I can buy any new one's. So unfair lol My books are my social life!! sad but true. except for last night that is at the get together!

I hope you like it. I'm really pleased with it, but it's a tough old market for a new idea at the moment....

Well I love it. I love the beginning where the girls get distracted by a pony. Happened to me a couple of times, too. And Luzie read the book on our flight to London and she enjoyed it a lot, too. Once my nephew is old enough he'll get a copy as well - provided I can find a Portuguese one. He refuses to speak any other language, the git.

Occasionally referred to as Gyp the Sober Tollin, when the payslip is late.
