Today I am very excited to be bringing you my review for Siggy Loves Sausages by Brian Frederick as part of the Lovebooksgroups book tour. Thankyou very much to the host and author for allowing me a copy of this lovely children's book in return for an honest review.
Blurb
A little dachshund ensues on a chase of something sparkly floating through the
sky, vowing to return it to its rightful owner. Follow Siggy as he dashes through the
village, saying hello to his friends and neighbors, but staying focused on the task at
hand. Will Siggy be able to keep his promise?
Come along for a joyful, rollicking tale with vibrant illustrations, sharing in the
happiness and beauty of everyday life. Young children will enjoy the escapades of
sweet little Siggy while learning lessons about keeping promises and unexpected
rewards.
My thoughts
This was such a lovely enchanting tale filled with humour and magic. I was expecting a book about a dog who liked eating sausages but this book was so much more. There were lots of fabulous messages for children within, encouraging children to help others and in doing so you will be rewarded with kindness and happy feelings.
I loved the magical element and the fact that some of the characters could actually understand Siggy, while some of them just heard 'Woof' it brings out the magic in life and that we can all see the magical elements if we take the time to listen.
This book is aimed at children aged 5-8 I read it with my 4 year old and he loved it. I can see it appealing to a wide range of children. It had lots of funny moments and Siggy was an adorable character. I hope there are lots more of Siggys wild adventures to come!
