Review
Flick and Birdie are back in another instalment of this delightful series for emerging readers.
It is sports day at school and Flick and her best friend Oli are excited, but not as excited as Flick’s Dad! He is determined to win the parents vs teachers race this year, and he has gone all out with his costume in support of Team Green.
But nothing is ever simple anymore. Not since Granny Aggie left Flick and her baby sister, Birdie, an imp in a bottle that can grant wishes – but only to Birdie. Anything could go wrong at any time if Birdie decides to make a wish!
With the neighbourhood group of over 60’s, The Busy bodies, in attendance at sports day, as well as news reporters, Flick and Oli are very worried about what Birdie might do.
Flick is determined to be the best big sister she can be, and she knows she has to protect their family secret in order to protect her little sister. But has Flick underestimated Birdie?
This is a fabulous story about family, friends, doing your best, all with some magic thrownin!
