This is the second book from the pen of Dougal
Trump with a wee bit of help from Jackie Marchant.
If you’ve not
read the first book, I suggest you do before you read the second. The first
book has just won the Heart of Hawick
Children’s Book Award. http://www.hawickchildrensbookaward.org/
But, let us get back to the second book – I’m Dougal Trump – Where’s my Tarantula? Once again it is full of excitement, challenges and groundings, which Dougal has a wonderful knack of forgetting. Dougal sets up a blog and has kept his site’s password secret, or so he thought. It isn’t long before he is getting threats and when his pet tarantula ‘Sybil’ goes missing there isn’t anything he can do but follow the instructions he is given. This gets him in to even more trouble – if that is at all possible! Can he trust anyone? The fantastic illustrations by Mike Lowery and little side notes throughout the book all add to the pleasure you get when reading. This book is another winner.
So what are you waiting for? Go and get
your copy, you won’t be disappointed.
