My daughter loves the Daisy books, so was delighted that there was a new story for World Book Day. As usual, for World Book Day, there are some smaller versions of books released which act as great ‘tasters’ for children, to allow them to try out different authors.

Anyone who is familiar with the Daisy books will know that Jack Beechwhistle is a boy at her school. In this story, we hear both Jack and Daisy’s musings about each other. Then, one day, the worst happens and they are forced to sit next to each other in class! Of course, with Mrs Peters keeping her beady eye on them, they are forced to invent some new ways of arguing, such as speaking in giraffe language. The trouble with speaking in giraffe language is that it can end up getting you into trouble…

This is a fantastic story about the relationship between Daisy and Jack, with all their misunderstandings and quibbles. I think many readers will be delighted to see that Jack is going to star in his own book, “Jack Beechwhistle: Attack of the Giant Slugs,” and, as always, Daisy is a delight. A great introduction to Daisy and her world.

A lovely quick read that took me back to my childhood!

This, I believe, is the shortest Daisy and the Trouble with books. It's book 11 in the series. I like the different styles of this book. You get to read both Daisy and Jack's perspective of every situation. Daisy's parts are in one font whilst Jack's is in another. As an adult, I find the jokes quite funny. This story lacks the storytelling aspects, and it's just a back and forth between two people. It was still a fun book notherless. And a very easy read I finished it in just 30 minutes

I love this book. The trouble with Jack bears an interesting resemblance to the trouble with Daisy, and by reading this book I have learned a considerable amount about both of them and about giraffes too. The trouble with children's books is that adults often don't realise how good they are. Unlike me. I do.

I didn't finish Daisy & Jack yet, but boy was it worth it!
The part about Jack Beechwhistle being raised by wolves was absolutely hysterical. Looking forward to reading more in the future!

This was a novella for world book day and a bit of fun but not as good as the other Daisy books
