I don't know if it was fiction or not... But i liked Daisy and Gaby the best because they were very enthusiastic. I loved when Daisy at the end was shouting I WON I WON I WON I WON. I didn't like the bit where the twins names were Lottie and Dottie, they could have made it more natural and not like rhyming.

This is a good book. I really liked it. The storyline was about Daisy trying to win a race in her school sports day.

The funniest bit about it is when Daisy does the egg and spoon race, she makes her egg out of chewing gum so it sticks on! And also, Lotty and Dotty spend their whole weekend holding an egg and spoon, even when they're on the loo.

I really loved this book. My favourite character is Gabby.
I really liked the actual sports day itself. I would have liked to join in. I would reccomend this book to anyone between the ages of 5 and 14.

The book was full of laughter the whole way through. Daisy tells us about her life inside and outside school. My favourite character is Gabby even though she's not the main character, she's smart, pretty and a good sports coach. I would recommend this book to people who like Kes Gray and other Daisy adventures.

It was very funny. I like the bit when daisy made an egg out of her chewing gum.

Going for gold, and getting into the zone, are the key things Daisy has to focus on when she gets to the start line on sports day! Without her best friend Gabby by her side, Daisy is left all alone. Will she be able to push through and make it to the finish line?

It was so funny and I love this series

I thought it shows that you can’t win a race without sportsmanship.

Daisy is my favourite. I liked that all the house names were types of Italian pasta.

The book wasn't bad. I didn't like it very much because it was boring. daisy kept on complaing. my favourite character was gabby because she did not complain all the time. I would not recommend this book to someone else.

It really does teach you about the power of friendship and how Daisy worked so hard for Gabby even when she felt like giving up. It is also a funny book too, so I do recommend this.

It was a good book about trying yiur best

24 Aug 2022

My favourite bit was when her Daisy's mum was embarrassed for doing something in sports day. I liked how Daisy loved sports day but when she found out Lottie Dottie was doing it she didn't like it. Her friend sprained her ankle so she was going to dedicate her award to her friend, but she cheated on her race!

This book is about Daisy having sports day. One of the best bits was when Jack (the bully) had some chewing gum and Daisy took some and put it on her spoon to help her win the egg and spoon race! I find Daisy really funny and an enjoyable read.

18 Aug 2022

I found this book as amusing as other books in the series. Daisy is a funny engaging character who gets up to all kinds of mischief, this time related to sports day activities. I would recommend to readers aged 6-8 years old.
