Magnificent Mabel and the Egg and Spoon Race

Meet Mabel - she's MAGNIFICENT.

Sometimes life isn't fair for Mabel Chase. Like for instance she ALWAYS comes last at sports day, even though it is NOT HER FAULT. And her family have not taken her to one SINGLE dog show. And she NEVER gets a good part in the school play.

But none of that matters in the end ... because Mabel is still MAGNIFICENT.

The third book in a hilarious new series, highly illustrated throughout and with three short stories, this is ideal for newly-confident readers.

A wonderful introduction to independent reading and chapter books for 5 - 7 year olds, with hugely relatable and perfectly-pitched themes that every parent and child will recognise, and ideal for fans of Pamela Butchart's Wigglesbottom Primary series and Alex T. Smith's Claude series.
