The books in this series are slight, and they are a little slapdash, but they only provide the reader with a warm smile and a happy experience. The under tens will not be alone in taking these books off the shelf. And well done Beardy Ardagh's parents for giving him a surname so close to the beginning of the alphabet. File your child's books in the suitable alphabetical order, and you'll find those beginning B and beyond feeling slightly neglected, as his joyful wackiness gets revisited quite often.
I must thank Faber's kind people for my review copy. We also have a review of [[Grubtown Tales: When Bunnies Turn Bad by Philip Ardagh]].
I first met the residents of Grubtown in [[The Wrong End of the Dog (Grubtown Tales) by Philip Ardagh|The Wrong End of the Dog]]. For evidence of Beardy Ardagh making frivolity out of next to nothing, you will enjoy his [[The Scandalous Life of the Lawless Sisters by Philip Ardagh|The Scandalous Life of the Lawless Sisters]].
