Little Lunch: Triple the Treats
This hilarious tie-in edition of the smash-hit television series "Little Lunch" has three bite-sized stories for young readers.
This is what happened during Little Lunch: Rory forgot his playlunch and did something that shocked everyone, Battie freaked out because he thought he’d ruined Grandparents Day and Melanie held a cake stall to help homeless puppies, but it didn’t really help anyone! A lot can happen in fifteen minutes.

Reviews
This series will have difficult readers opening its pages. Ideal for 7+ age groups, it can become addictive due to its potential for endless discussion about the antics of the characters.
Buzz Words
The stories are real life kids dramas with a big splash of zany – relatable and fun! Vane’s quirky comic sketches pepper the pages, spicing up the humour of Katz’s text.
Creative Kids Tales
Highly recommended. All in all a very satisfying group of stories, nicely presented which will have wide appeal.

Janet Croft Reviews
The Little Lunch series is written to encourage children to read, but their parents will also enjoy reading them aloud at bed time
Reading Time
The stories are humorous, fast moving (each takes place within a single recess break) and well woven, with the characters both diverse and likeable. Black and white illustrations by Mitch Vane are complemented by still photos from the television series.
