The Floods: the great outdoors by Colin Thompson
Random House, 2008. ISBN
9781741662535;
(Age: Middle and Upper Primary) This is the sixth story of the Flood
family and their adventures but
the stories do not need to be read in sequence. The Floods are a family
of Wizards who would like to be more human. They decide to take a
family holiday with their human neighbours and they do try to fit in at
Port Folio, but there are some things that take a bit of getting used
to – like not using magic to win the sandcastle competition! A funny
story that students who enjoy a sense of the ridiculous will enjoy.
