5-Star Book ReviewA magical Snow Goose is a character in my fairytale and represents magic and goodness
Suzy DaviesAdventurous fairy tale with terrific character development
5-Star Book Review"This children’s author writes magical tales that 21st century children can immerse themselves in"
Book ReviewInteresting fairytale with plenty of interesting characters especially the Snow Queen and naturally the wizard. Enjoyed the storytelling and the various characters which were interwoven in the magical tale. Good read.
Book ReviewThe theme of love and sacrifice runs deep throughout the story, as the characters demonstrate their unwavering devotion to one another. Bryony and Sean's love story adds a layer of romance and depth to the narrative, showcasing the transformative power of love and the importance of embracing one's true identity.
Book ReviewThere’s a fabulous plot that takes the reader from Luna’s birth through her new home and adventures to discovering her real value in life. All of this is told in excellent, straightforward language that not only conveys the narrative well and is interesting, but is accessible for slightly older children of around six to read independently so that their own literacy can be enhanced at the same time as they are being entertained. - Linda Hill Amazon 5Star Review of "Luna The Moon Pig: The Pig Who Hid" (excerpt)

5-star Gold Book AwardI read this book, and it's a sweet book for kids, whether they read it or it is read to them. The story is entertaining, and kids learn all about animals, rodents, and people at the time of The Big Cheese roll down a hill.
5-star Book ReviewHis mind wandered in these moments. He wondered about those who had married, had children and grandchildren christened, the thought of ancestors who had died and were buried in the grounds of this very church.
Suzy Davies 7New Year's Eve is a time to plan, to dream, to hope. It is the blank page of the calendar when you create what magic will happen next ...
Suzy DaviesWithin the setting of this entrancing tale, a surprising and mysterious turn of events takes place. The storyline experiences an unforeseen twist when the characters Housie Mousie and Ratty Rat inadvertently come across a nefarious scheme to pilfer the highly sought-after Big Cheese. In this situation, the individuals' bravery and steadfast collaboration become evident as they mobilize their recently formed acquaintances to foil the crafty criminals.
5-star Book ReviewThe story begins with the characters Housie Mousie and Ratty Rat embarking on an exhilarating adventure to participate in The Big Cheese Race, a prestigious event situated in the scenic Cotswolds region of England.

Brilliant illustrations draw the reader into a magical world full of love and light. This ageless story demonstrates the importance of family, animal welfare, and the value of community. I highly recommend this fabulous book!

5-star Book Review The Flamingos Who Painted The SkyRiveting
5-Star Book Review“Anyone who writes down to children is simply wasting his time. You have to write up, not down. Children are demanding. They are the most attentive, curious, eager, observant, sensitive, quick, and generally congenial readers on earth. They accept, almost without question, anything you present them with, as long as it is presented honestly, fearlessly, and clearly.”
E. B WhiteYou will discover an amazing story with magic, powerful red cloaks, families of rivalry and friendship, and an ending that will leave you wondering about it all. I will surely buy more books from Suzy in the future, as this is not her only magical-turned classic tale.
5-Star Book ReviewThe characters are richly drawn, and their relationships add depth to the story. The connection between Bryony and Sean becomes a focal point, showcasing the enduring power of true love against the backdrop of a fantastical world filled with challenges and mystical adversaries.
5-Star Book ReviewI love the descriptions of their sled dogs who each have such unique characters and are an integral part of the story. Their magical raven Black Claw guides the way and their family cheers them on!
5-Star Book ReviewThe book ... teaches children about friendship, never giving up on your goals, and how to solve problems by allowing your friends to help you.
5-Star Book ReviewThere Jintara sat, at the treadle. The wheel spun round. As if in a dream, she sewed a thousand colors, thread upon thread. When all was finished, Jintara held the work up to the light at her window. She noticed a long rainbow thread, made of many threads tangled together, that trailed from the quilt. She snipped it, with her scissors, as a midwife would cut an umbilical cord.

5-Star Book ReviewThe characters are well drawn, and the story unfolds with a sense of magic and wonder. As the central couple, (Bryony,) aka the Robber Girl, and her Roma sweetheart Sean, pursue their long adventure to rescue an innocent victim and save all the children of the world from a terrible enemy, their romance blossoms and deepens. Their antagonists, the terrible Ice Queen and her evil Wizard sidekick, are frighteningly drawn and combine magical components with a believable psychology.
Goodreads Book ReviewerLuna the Moon Pig is absolutely adorable but, sadly, she believes herself to be ugly. An endearing story by Suzy Davies and wonderfully illustrated in colour by the illustrator and animator, Sheila Graber - well-known for her BBC Paddington Bear drawings. I love the positive message of the book and completely recommend it.
5-Star Book Review 1The themes presented are so good for children to encounter and explore without feeling threatened personally. Luna lacks confidence in her appearance but comes to realise that beauty is on the inside too. She is aware of stranger danger and yet understands there is an exciting world to investigate but that family and home are important. I loved the blend of traditional fairy tale elements like wishes and magic alongside the more prosaic (and that’s not a criticism) aspects of simply having fun.
5-Star Book Review 2By the side of the river he trotted as one trots, when very small, by the side of a man who holds one spellbound by exciting stories; and when tired at last, he sat on the bank, while the river still chattered on to him, a babbling procession of the best stories in the world, sent from the heart of the earth to be told ...
Kenneth GrahameThe power of imagination is often underestimated, and yet it is this very thing that gives children the motivation to create, to invent and to make discoveries. Without imagination there would be no ground-braking science, no art, no visionary business people, and no winners of The Nobel Peace Prize. Moreover, there would be no writers. Reading books is essential for stimulating the imaginations of children who make the future -Suzy Davies

Book ReviewMy girls and I read this story aloud a few months back. We read so many books it's sometimes hard to remember, but this one really stands out for me. And so, when I saw the opportunity to review pop-up, I just had to leave a few words. Don't pass this one up. It's a well-plotted, cozy read you won't soon forget set in Alaska at the Iditarod.

Suzy DaviesA delightful and enchanting fairytale
5-Star Book ReviewIt’s a great fairytale retelling for kids over 9 years. Set in snowy Alaska, the story actually has a consultant who won the dog sledding race in 2019 and provides real facts for the tale. It is beautifully illustrated, and I love how it is written in a riveting, cinematic style with vivid descriptions and various viewpoints.
5-Star Book ReviewThis is such a good fairytale book! Like many other said, its different spin on the classic little red riding hood story with a combination of both magical and realistic details. Its much longer and different that the classic story which makes it a good read for children if they're already over the original.
5-Star Book ReviewI love that this retelling uses Alaska for the setting. Stella is a well-developed, exciting, and strong character that overcomes challenges and learns to believe in herself through the story. The plot is fast-paced, exciting, and refreshing. This is a wonderful retelling of Little Red Riding Hood that children and adults alike will enjoy.

5-Star Book ReviewThe beautiful book cover certainly sets the scene for this magical story. The author manages to draw you deep into the tale with her wonderful descriptive text. Especially the snowy winter wonderland. Even the description of Adam and his family brought back memories of my time living and working in London. The cracked concrete paths, the tower blocks and metal railings. The greasy diner and the bookies, then the magic of the big shop window displays for the Christmas season.

5-Star Book Review"What sets this retelling apart from others is the masterful interplay of characters and the vivid world building that Suzy Davies expertly crafted."
5-Star Book ReviewBook Review from the legendary Sheila Graber Suzy Davies sent me a script for her book "The Cave" - I was so impressed with the way she wove fact and fiction, drama and humor together in a poetic - but so down to earth (or is it rock) - way that I immediately wanted to illustrate it. Happily, Suzy agreed - I know you will enjoy reading this unique story as much as I - and love the appropriate ending to the days of knife-edge drama for the lads in the team - "Football's Coming Home"

Suzy DaviesKhun Mae went to bed past midnight. After a few minutes, her mouth opened. Her hair was a dark cloud on the pillow. Up and up, she drifted above her bed, through the white mosquito nets, until she was as light as a sea bird. She drifted through the open flap of her window, into the balmy night air. Through the rainstorm she flew, over the city of Bangkok and its blurry lights, until the stars themselves guided this bird on her journey into the mountains, and above Tham Luang cave.

Suzy DaviesThe Snow Queen reminds me of dreaming, moving from scene to scene, person to person, shifting images, points of view, elements of both ordinary life mixed with fantasy images. I'm not overly familiar with the genre of magic realism, but this reminds me of what I've seen. The story is told with beautiful imagery and ends nicely... I believe it would be good for young adults. Teen girls may especially enjoy the story.

Round the lighthouse, on the opposite side to Snugs’ room, Mr andMrs Merryweather put down the blinds and blew out the candle.
