![]() ![]() I usually have one or two by my bed, for if I read a really scary or awkward bit in a book. ![]() I tend, now, to think of many of them as great ‘comfort books’. But I’ve also read lots of her books for slightly older kids, like the Lily & Rose series’, Girl Of Glass & The Mermaid’s Sister, Evie’s War, Frost, Return To The Secret Garden & The Princess And The Suffragette. ![]() The books of hers that I’ve read most of are the Animal Stories, of which she has millions (might be exaggerating a little bit, but oh well) and they all tend to have really good morals and are really sweet. Her books are amazing stories that are great to read to younger children, and perfect for kids to read themselves once they get a bit more independent. She has actually written over 130 books (so I’m a bit of a failure for being 50 short!) when, let’s face it, most people can’t even write one. I mean, if you do a quick search through my Twitter feed I’ve read at least 80 of her books, so obviously I’m not bored of them! (and, you know I’m almost 15, read lots of Stephen King, Agatha Christie & political non-fiction, and yet I’m STILL reading her books …though maybe that just says something about me to be honest). Holly Webb is an amazing, incredibly prolific, children’s writer. I love Holly Webb, and I think I have more books by her than anyone else, yet she’s one of the few “favourite authors” I’ve never actually met ![]()
