Bertie and Small and the fast bike ride, Vanessa Cabban (1999)
Walker Books 0744561604 Octo 20pp £8.99
An illustrated book aimed at children under fives or first readers

A sweet story of adventure on a tricycle, with a toy rabbit and a dachshund
for company. It is nicely drawn and is the kind of story that, if it caught
a child's imagination, might be read over and over again.

How this site is organised
As reviews are added, they are featured on the
front page. All titles are listed in the master index and cross-referenced
in the other indicies.
The subject line contains the title, author and
date of each book's publication. As a general rule, we list the
date of the actual edition that we read, unless there is an obvious
reason to use the original date (say where we read a reprint).
The first line of the main text contains the name
of the publisher, the ISBN
number, where it exists, an indication of the book's
size and the number of printed pages that it contains. Finally,
where it is clear, I list the published price of the work in the
currency that is most prominently displayed.
We summarise the book in a single sentence or two
in the next line. The rest of the review is then intended as a self-contained
piece.
