I loved these books as a child and have just enjoyed reading this one again with my 5 year old. We love the different lands and predicting what might happen and what lands might come next.

My favourite character was saucepan man because he was funny when he kept mishearing what people was saying. I would recommend this book to children aged 7+.

I like this story because there were some funny characters and one was called saucepan man. He walked around making lots of noise and disturbing other people living in the tree. At the top of the tree there was a land. Each day Bth, Joe and Frannie went up to the top to see if moon face was up there. I would like to have birthday party in the treetop like Beth did.

It was really fun to read. I've read the Jacqueline Wilson version before. The characters are different but it's still the same story. I loved reading it!

The enchanted wood is a fiction book. I like Moon-Face the best because he is kind and helpful. He helped Beth and Frannie to find Joe because Joe, Beth and Frannie gave Moon-Face some toffee which he loves eating. Joe, Beth and Frannie have just moved and they love their parents and rosy cottage. But they also love the Faraway tree and their best friends. They go to different lands that are at the the top of the faraway tree. Some lands are nice and some aren't that good. I would recommend this book to somebody else because it is a role model for children, like being helpful.
