Feely and Henry VIII

Feely volunteers to look after the class goldfish, Henry The First. The Pink Clicks say it’s a mistake and Feely should not be allowed to look after the fish. Saffron says Feely will kill it with her breath. Unfortunately for Feely (and the fish), Saffron has the power of prophecy… Warning - rather a lot of goldfish are harmed in the writing of this book.

This title is part of the hilarious Feely Tonks series. Barbara Catchpole is masterful at producing laugh out loud books which hook even the most reluctant readers. Her character Feely Tonks is a mercilessly honest, clever girl constantly annoyed at her (in her own eyes) useless family. The books are written as her diary entries with easy to read text and really lovely, funny, blackand white illustrations. Perfect for engaging girls (and boys) less keen on reading.
