Book Band White - Ideal for ages 6+
A fun and lively story about a little girl called Fizzy and her desire to join in the fun next door rather than go to bed as her mother wishes.
This theme would certainly appeal to young children, all of whom I am sure have been in the same position. … but I’m not tired … this is a sentence we have all uttered. What makes this story convincing is Fizzy’s rational for why she should go to the party and her persuasive nature. Children will enjoy how she manages to win her mother round to her way of thinking!
The pages are packed with busy and colourful illustrations, creating lots of visuals for discussion. The story is divided into chapters and the writing is clear and imaginatively written with lots of description and creative vocabulary.
It's time for Fizzy to go to bed, but next door, Mrs Crumbleboom and her band are having a party. Fizzy is desperate to join in the fun. Will Mum let her stay up just a little bit longer?
