This is a really funny book, the characters are cute and I enjoy listening on my Yoto, there are 3 in the set and I have read all of the. And again they are one of my favourites as it’s all adventures in the woods and reminds me of where I live!

My favourite character is silky, because she is a fairy and can fly. My favourite part of the story is when the children and silky and moon face first go to the land of toys. I would recommend this book.

I enjoyed this book because it had lots of toys in it. My favourite part was when they had to run away from the toys because they rescued the saucepan man.

Factual because toys aren’t alive my favourite person in the story is Joe . Interesting to me because I wondered what it looks like and how it felt like to be in there. I would suggest my friends to read it because It’s a really interesting book and might feel like they like it more

Saucepan man thinks land of toys is land of goodies and did not know he has to pay for it. He took a trophy without paying and was arrested by police. His friends were looking for him in the city. They arranged money to help escape Saucepan from jail.
