Reviews
I really enjoyed reading this book. My favourite parts where when Princess Betony met the Rock creatures and then when she finally got the Thunder egg. I think this book would be perfect for 6 and 7 year old girls. It is fun and has good pictures in it too. I give Princess Betony and the Thunder Egg 4 stars! – Aijay, Kid Reviewer
Creative Kids Tales
The author, Pamela Freeman, has created a lovely little story, like a fairy tale, and I would recommend it to girls, aged 9+.
