Bad Nana All The Fun Of The Fair by Sophy Henn

In this book Jeanie and her Nana go to the fair where lots of contests are taking place such as waggiest dog tail, prettiest pet etc only all the top prizes keep going to evil Georgina as her mum is the judge!

Filled with colourful pictures throughout to illustrate, Bad Nana is fabulous sticking up for her family and friends and is not to be reckoned with! I liked the fair and what happened with the cake contest at the end good old Bad Nana I can't wait for more!

Bad Nanna: Older Not Wiser by Sophy Henn

Jeanie is seven years old, with a large extended family including her mum, dad, younger brother, three nana's including Bad Nana and her aunts, uncles and cousins too.

Her Nana isn't bad in the traditional sense like stealing or other crime committing, though she does love the stories that come with them from others like in the news. She is an eccentric character who loves dressing in all black and glitzy earrings and has a fond addictive love of sherbet lemon sweets.

Through mini tales we see how she has a set park bench, gets to go along and help at the younger kids school and go on the trips too, she can put all the men in their places too handling them effortlessly! She sticks up for the kids in hilarious ways and is a very creative grandmother.

Overall, it's huge fun, shows family love, has some really cool designed characters in simple drawing graphic style that's really effective and bold artwork throughout the whole book with popping colours for contrast.

Many thanks to the publishers for allowing me to review this book for them!
