{Book Review} Abigail and the Sahara adventure


This post contains affiliate links, if you make a purchase via these links I will earn a small commision. 

When I was growing up my mum gave me a huge suitcase full of books she used to read way (waaay before my time) these books where not necessary kids books but I did enjoy them. Some of the books were geography books and I know some people won't appreciate this but I loved reading geography books to just learn about the world, different countries and cultures this was all fascinating to me. I knew about my land (Zambia) the towns, the national parks (safari's), the lakes and all that I needed to know, I was also quite family with the sahara desert actually on the deserts in Africa. When I was given the opportunity to review this children's book I was very happy, I have thought about ways I want to teach my nephew about my fascinations (which include the Sahara) and I think this is a very good book to introduce him to it.

 Review 
This book is well written, good use of grammar and makes it easy for a child to understand. I love the picture illustrations so the child can visualise what is being read. The book opens up a child's imagination, its educating as well as fun to read at the same time. You can ready this to your kiddies, it takes less than 5 minutes to read and of the books of Abigail's adventures have read the author has connected them quite nicely, so you can read the entire series or one adventure every night. You can purchase the book for £0.77 (very cheap).      What are some of your childhood memories about book reading? Where you fascinated with books? Do your kiddies/nieces/nephews/g-kiddies enjoy reading books?

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
