A story about friendship and courage, it’s Picnic Day and Millie sets off with a basket of food to share with her friends, However, along the way, as she meets each of her friends they hear a noise that sends them running away to hide, fearing giants and dragons and monsters. Millie wants Picnic Day to go ahead, and even though she is scared, moves on to looking for another friend.
This is the latest book from Hilary Hawkes featuring Millie, I have read Millie’s Magic previously and was thrilled to see more of the lovely textured illustrations by Andrea Petrlik. The writing is simple and easy to follow, with some repetitive moments that could encourage younger readers to join in.
The message of bravery and friendship is a sweet one and there are activities at the end that can help young readers to discover when they are brave in their lives. A nice simple story with a positive message.
