Reading Force Book Club members satisfy their appetites for fun by reviewing Hangry by Kathryn Wanless and Fred Blunt
Beatrice, aged six, and dad
BEATRICE’S FAVOURITE page was when the girl’s mum turned into a hangry monster because it featured bright colours and a chance to shout. This was a relevant life book and not too difficult for a six-year-old, who only needed help with a few words. It allowed us to have a discussion about other ways people might feel angry. It was bright, colourful and direct with an injection of humour.
Amelia and Ellie, aged 10 and six
IT IS a really good book and we enjoyed reading it with daddy over Facetime. Evangeline is a happy girl until she turns hangry! We liked mum and Evangeline hugging with a banana, everyone gets hangry sometimes. Amelia said: “I like this book, my sister acts like that sometimes.” Ellie added: “I like the cute dog and mum’s hairstyle.”
Orla, aged five
THE BOOK is about a little girl who gets ‘hangry’. She turns into a monster when she is feeling hungry. I think the book is funny. I like how the little girl and her mummy both become ‘hangry’ monsters. That was surprising!
