About Dave
AnneS –
Dave has not missed many opportunities to include well-known and over-used cliches galore, and even delves into philosophy, and ancient history among the topics the animals ‘discuss’. .. The whole contrived story is well-paced and geared for children’s reading but it would be better for it to be read to them by older persons, providing those older persons can keep their tongues out of their cheeks.
