Reviews

Princess Betony and the Hobgoblin is the fourth book in Pamela Freeman's wonderful series. Accompanied by beautiful illustrations by Tamsin Ainslie readers will be enchanted by the magical world of Princess Betony's home in the kingdom of Floramonde. -- Reading Time * Reading Time * It's a lovely book for early reading girls especially those attempting their first reader novel - an excellent bridge to middle reading -- Creative Kids Tales * Creative Kids Tales * This would make a good read aloud with its great characterisation and humorous incidents and with the other books in the series, would be a great way of moving children from picture books onto chapter books. -- Read Plus * Read Plus * This is a sweet and quite exciting story about treating everyone equally, respecting differences and not expecting people to be anything else but themselves. * Creative Kids Tales * The author, Pamela Freeman, has created a lovely little story, like a fairy tale, and I would recommend it to girls, aged 9+. * Read Plus * This is a gentle and endearing series of short chapter books. * Magpies Magazine *
