Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Sandi Toksvig reads Jacqueline Wilson's Glubbslyme in this unabridged two-cassette audio book.
Glubbslyme, by the award-winning author of many bestselling titles (including Double Act and The Suitcase Kid), is a light-hearted story of friendship and magic that is guaranteed to delight all imaginative 7-11 year olds.
Rebecca's been rejected by her girlfriends, so when a 300-year-old magical toad offers to become her best friend things take a turn for the better. Instead of lipstick and little ponies Sarah becomes absorbed by learning to fly and casting spells on her horrid neighbour and beastly girlfriend. It all sounds great fun but having magical powers brings serious responsibilities when Glubbslyme encourages her to be as bad as her 17th century namesake, the wicked witch Rebecca Cockgoldde.
Wilson's skilful portrayal of the growing friendship between the bad-tempered, pedantic and vain toad and the imaginative, lonely young girl is funny, wise and reassuring. Running time is two hours and 45 minutes. --Tamsin Palmer --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Glubbslyme is a great book, full of laughter and entertainment. It is about a frog who can talk, and when Rebecca makes a wish it comes true, but not in the way she wants it to!!!! My favourite part of the book is when Rebecca puts the umbrella up when it starts to rain, and she goes floating up into the air, with the frog!!! I really recommend this book, it is one of the best Jacqueline Wilson books!!

Format:Paperback
This book is about a girl called Rebecca who jumps into a witches pond and meets a frog called Glubslime. Rebecca and Glubslime become great friends and have lots of adventures together. Her big secret is to not tell her dad about Glubslime as he did not allow her to keep a pet.If you want to find out more you will have to read the book. This is a funny book that all fans of Jaqueline Wilson will really love. I recommend for all children ages 8-11.

Total Yawn
Not Ms Wilson's best work and I found it extremely tedious.
Nuff said.
Also it's not the same without Nick Sharrat's illustrations on the inside.

More Witchcraft for the Potter Generation
In some ways I really like this book but as an adult and a parent concerned about the prevalence of witchcraft in children's literature I wouldn't recommend it. It's too long. Read more
