Win’s Christmas Gift Recommendation: Take Me to Your Leader’s Bookshelf\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 9\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

These days there’s a wealth of comics and cartoon books for the young to cut their milk-teeth on and amongst the most entertaining are those produced by Toon Books.\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/p>\n

This particular treat by writer Nadja Spiegelman & Trade Loeffler follows the escapades of a couple of alien kids cutting classes when they should be doing homework.<\/p>\n

In space, however, teachers can still track you down wherever you are, and when an urgent call reminds Zig he has to complete his science project – bringing a pet in to class – he reluctantly lands on the blue-green planet he’s passing and goes hunting for an animal to adopt\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/p>\n

Thus begins a grand odyssey as Zig and his electronic know-it-all pal Wikki interview and pursue a range of earthly creatures for the role, only slightly hampered by the detail that they both are approximately the size of Earth mice. At least they have a shrinking ray with them\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/p>\n

Aimed at 5-and-over age-ranges, this splendidly child-sized (236 x162 mm) full-colour landscape format tome is a gloriously evocative, sleekly exciting kid-friendly caper, produced in hardback, paperback and e-book editions. Fast-paced, charming and packed with learning content as Wikki’s face-screen provides photos and gloriously gross fun facts about Flies, Dragonflies, Frogs and Raccoons, Zig’s quest to \u00e2\u20ac\u0153bring ’em back alive\u00e2\u20ac\u009d is a sweet blend of science and fiction that will keep kids and parents enthralled.
