Some tricky words but loved the character Frannie, she's a bit like me adventurous and kind.

The Magic Faraway Tree every day has a new land at the top and it's really exciting to find out what it is so the three children called Jo, Beth and Francesca went and saw the Faraway Tree and it became their daily routine, they went to it every day. It was amazing how they were shoved into challenges, met new friends and discovered new worlds they had never seen before.

I liked silky. The saucepan man was very funny. Moon face was very funny because he let people go down the slippery slip and he was very kind.

Not everything needed to happen. Some of the story could have been put into other books.

It was Magical, it had fairies and pixies and all sort of magical things. I really liked the character Fran as he wasn't as dull as his sister's at the start.

My favourite character was moon face because his face is like the moon and may favourite land at the top of the tree was the land of presents. The presents saucepanman picked were really funny.
