it engaged me immediately. The font is big and friendly, has cute illustrations and the action takes off from the first sentence. The main characters are both infuriatingly naughty, yet I loved them both! The book is set in modern Ireland, which the children will love and will give the teacher scope for cross-curricular learning ... would engage third and fourth class pupils
