Up, Up and Away: The Adventures of Mrs. Hiffen-Hopper by Carla Chadwick
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a fabulous children's picture book for children aged 2 to 8. I loved it!

Mrs. Hiffen-Hopper is a wonderful character. She is a frog who dares to dream big! She takes her children on an amazing adventure to show them that it may be scary to dream big, but taking the journey into the unknown could bring even bigger dreams to follow.

This is a fantastic tale that teaches children that it is okay to dream big. The story is short enough not to bore even the most shortest attention span, but long enough to take the child on an amazing adventure. As this is a children's book, it has some fantastically drawn illustrations. These pictures compliment the story beautifully. The colours are bright and cheerful, and will appeal to young eyes. The story can be read as a bedtime story to the younger children, but can also be read by the children when they get old enough to read for themselves, as there are no big words to confuse their developing minds. I wish I had read this book as a child!

Carla Chadwick has written a charming children's book that brought a smile to my face. I wouldn't mind reading more of her adventure series in the future.

I HIGHLY recommend this book to everyone - even those who have forgotten their dreams as they grew up! - Lynn Worton
