Peng & Spanners -The Swamp Thing
Book Review
I loved that it is in full colour
I thought that this book was so funny.
My favourite bit of the book was the swamp thing said ‘milky milky’ it made me laugh lots.
The drawings were really good and I loved that it is in full colour.
My favourite character was Peng because he was a cute little penguin.
I want to read all the other Peng books!
5/5 from me!
About the Book
When everyone’s favourite stately home becomes haunted by a terrible swamp monster (who seems to love kidnapping cows), Peng and Spanners are called in to investigate the swamp and unblock the mystery.
Luckily the robot dog Secret Business is prepared to hang out in a miniature submarine and snoop on suspicious conversations between anyone who has an interest in causing mischief.
Meanwhile Peng and Spanners interview suspects, debate everything, and try to get their hands on more pizza . . .
