If you can find books that you love it’s so wonderful – to learn about the world and help your own writing and thinking. I’m sure there’s something here for the target readers (definitely under-tens), and there certainly is a pell-mell flow to the plot, but I seldom read something for this audience that is so adult-proof, meaning this really is for young minds only. He takes her to his cave and makes lots of magical potions in his cave and I think that would be a really fun place to go – into a bear’s cave! I feel a bit behind s I didn’t know Ben Miller even wrote books, which is exciting, as I’m a big fan of his. Lana and Harrison are staying with grandparents but their favourite tree to climb is going to be cut down.That night, the girl of the siblings wakes up with a mahoosive spider’s thread stuck to her finger, so she wakes her brother and they follow it all through the house, all through the marsh to the tree, and all up the tree until lo and behold out the top they’re in another world, peopled by different versions of characters they’ve just met. But one night, an golden, enchanted thread wrapped around Lana's finger leads them up through their favourite tree through their tree into a magical land. In comedy you listen carefully to the audience, the audience make you funny, so you really pay attention to them and you follow them and you end up having a lot of fun.

I found myself really caring about the spiders by the end of the book too, which I think was the point.

I loved the fact they went on an adventure and I love that it was set in a wood and I loved the comedy. So I really enjoy the school events since it’s a bit like doing comedy and a bit like being a teacher, so you have a bit of responsibility but not too much. It is straightforward and exciting for children to follow but developed enough to interest older readers.
