Really weird by Anh Do
Weirdo 8. Scholastic Australia, 2017. ISBN 9781760276768
(Age: 8-12) Highly recommended. Superb! Anh makes Weir Do feel like
your best pal. He has, as always, brought his many readers another
thoroughly entertaining read in this, the 8th book in the series
about the highly likeable Weir Do.
Oink-a-Doodle-Doooo! From pigs that aspire to be roosters, or run
away to join the ballet (pigs in tutus), or Poppy knitting a mini
beanie for Brian, the cactus, all Anh's usual appealing characters
are here, including Bella, Grandma Do, Henry, Mullet and Wendy, who
all keep the reader tickled and smiling until the last page is
all-too-soon reached.
With wonderfully simple sketched illustrations, Really weird
is carefully crafted, delightfully droll and should definitely
appeal even to the most reluctant reader in the 8-12 years bracket.
