Hey! Here's my review.
This was my favourite series when I was a kid. I have been waiting years until my kids were old enough to read it to them. Their grandparents gave them a copy for Christmas. It's not quite the same with Beth, Frannie, Joe and Rick instead of Bessie, Fanny, Jo and Dick, but still a great tale (with much less giggling about Fanny and Dick....)
This is book two in the series. You can also read our review of book 1 - The Enchanted Wood

Her: Um, I need a look on a book. Him (points to boy on cover)
Me: Who's that?
Her: Don't know
Me: Is that Rick or Joe?

Me: Which land would you like to go to?
Her: Upsydown land (The land of topsy turvy)
Me: Why would you like to go there?
Her: Because everything is upsydown and I like upsydown (tries to do a handstand)
Me: Do you want to read more about them?
Her: You know I'm friends with ants. (She spots a couple of ants on the floor)
Me: Yes, but do you want to read more about the faraway tree?
Her: Nods.
