“It’s my Best Book ever. Wills.”

DELIGHTFUL!, 24 May 2008 This is truly a delightful book…to enjoy over and over with your little ones! It is captivating to read the antics of Dylan, Tabby and all their animal friends and to see how their adventures unfold…through thick and thin…and perhaps think that we should ‘talk to the animals’ more often. It is charmingly and sparingly illustrated…and leaves it to the imagination of the reader to see these pictures in their own minds and paint them onto their own canvasses both in their minds and on paper. The charm of the text and moral of the story are so sweet! I highly recommend the book…for younguns…and oldies too. It will make a better story teller of Gramps any day! Thank you, Katherine Reynolds, for this delightful story! If this is indeed your first children’s book, long may you continue to write many more. Lorna Dallas.

‘I really enjoyed Born To Dance I think it’s one of my favourite books I’ve ever readI especially liked the part when they found Desiree and when Dennis made her better!I am going to make my friends and my mum and my brother and my dad read it.Born To Dance must be the best book in the world and I hope you write another book about Dylan and Red Tabby and everyone in the Happy Days Circus including Lord Stomper. Poppy W-T.’

This book was an absolute delight to read with my 9-year old Grand-daughter who quickly and thoroughly became caught up in the adventure of the two main animal characters. It was fun to follow the plot as the animals took over the circus and overcame so many obstacles without the control of adult humans. She also really enjoyed being able to draw a picture at the end of each chapter of how she saw things unfolding, or what stuck in her imagination from the pages just read. I highly recommend Born To Dance to any fellow grandparents looking for something good to help connect with the grandchildren . . . it really is a great read that we both had a good time with.

“I loved reading Born to Dance, it’s a really good story. It’s an amazing book. Thanks,  Katie.”

 “Jess liked it SO much that he asked at school next day if he could swap the Alex Ryder he was reading for Born to Dance!!!! Yesterday he updated me on the plot and said that he’ll keep doing that. So it is definitely a big hit.  (Jess’s Mum.)”

 

“It is a great story, I loved every single bit it. I also really enjoyed drawing Red Tabby and Dylan’s adventures in the spaces you left (that is really good because when you draw the picture you have a clear mind of what is happening in the story). I love the bit where Dylan goes on a journey all by himself to find his mother, then Red Tabby finds him and they go back to the circus and then all the other animals including, Lord Stomper, Madam Lulu and Ring Master Chia help look for his mother, I liked this bit because it shows that the animals, too have great courage and friendship.
