Mallory Mallory: The Revenge of the Tooth Fairy

James Norcliffe

Penguin

Lyttelton-based James Norcliffe is an award-winning poet and writer, and the author of several children’s fantasy books celebrated for their unexpected plot twists and magical wit. This is no exception. It is laugh-out-loud funny and full of terrible puns, suspense and humour. Plus there are magical drawings from Emily Walker throughout. Here is what our young reviewer had to say:

Mallory, Mallory is a good book. I enjoyed reading it. Chapter one inspired me to keep reading the rest of the book. Mallory is not a nice kid and with her only friend Arthur, is always up to no good. When Mallory’s tooth falls out they hatch a plan to catch the tooth fairy! Reviewed by Issy Tull, age 8
