Algy can’t wait to see what world is waiting for him at the bottom of the garden this time. But when his best friend Cherry shows up with her little brother Brad in tow, he is not impressed. Everyone knows small children just cry and break other people’s toys. What use is Brad going to be on an adventure?
But in a snowy Arctic world, where monsters lurk and giant footprints lead into the mountains, Algy discovers there might be more to Brad than meets the eye.

I liked it because Algy thought the little child is bad but they are actually good

I like in this book when they go on a adventure to the Artic and find a snow beast when Algy saw the snow beast in a cartoon video. I like Cherry because she is nice. Yes I would recommend because its a really good adventure book.

I liked the exciting cliff hangers in his book!
Sergeant Portobello Biscuits 27.08.2022
This was very descriptive and I liked the illustrations. I thought the emotions the characters were very clear when you looked at the, for example, when Dawn was throwing a temper tantrum, you could really see it in her expression.

There was this little boy called Brad who was the smallest of them all and he wanted to go on the adventure with them. They were so happy when they found him because he had got lost.

Algy and Cherrie Smellie, together with her little brother Brad Smellie (what funny or weird name) went on an adventure in Algy's garden shed - where there was snow as if it was in the Arctic. They built a snowman and decided to explore around, but because it was cold they went to get their coats or jackets and left Brad in the shed to wait for them. However, when they returned - Brad was not in the shed; he had was missing and so they went on to search for him. They saw giant footprints of huge man-beasts - a Yeti - and followed the footprints until they found Brad - they heard him singing: "If ya happy an' ya know it, clappya hans", which he had also been singing when they were building the snowman. I liked Algy the most; though he doesn't like little children because of their tantrums and didn't want Brad to go with them on the Arctic adventure - he later liked Brad being around him. Oh yes, I would recommend to anyone - who loves reading about brave characters going on adventures!
