Two friends are chatting about all the amazing adventures they’d been on.
“And how about the time we got lost in The Land of Lost Things?”
When one friend can’t remember, the other decides to refresh his memory.
“It all started like this…”
Beginning in front of their cosy fire in their clubhouse, they’d decided to go on a new adventure because they were a bit bored.
Jumping into their (homemade) adventure suits and then their uncrashable adventure car, they were off!
Their uncrashable car is also all sorts of amazing other things and it takes them into their new adventure, only to land in The Land of Lost Things.
While they are there, looking for special objects they have lost themselves, they find tons of other stuff and meet others doing their own searching.
But there is also danger, a knucklehead or two and a very cranky bull. Flying watches and socks, turtles, books and a rabbit pirate. The friends must quickly determine who is friend or foe, along with remembering what they were looking for in the first place.
Such an entertaining jam-packed read full of amazing illustrations, and a funny story.
Every turn of the page brings new pictures and the font size is in a clear easy read style. There are maps, and double page spreads to pore over. Search and finds, comic strips and stories within this story are extras, along with tons of clever gags to make you laugh.
Yes, I laughed out loud while reading this book and am looking forward to sharing it with new young readers I meet.
The Land of Lost Things is definitely worth more than one read, it has so much to look and laugh at. I like it even more than the famous and hugely popular Treehouse series by Griffiths and Terry Denton.
