|title=The Further Adventures of the Owl and the Pussy-cat
|author=Julia Donaldson and Charlotte Voake
|rating=5
|genre=For Sharing
|summary=I was utterly intrigued by the idea of a follow up to the wonderful Edward Lear poem, The Owl and the Pussy-cat. I thought it might have the feel that some follow ups by different authors might have, but I was very pleasantly surprised. If anybody was going to be able to write verse that could live up to the original, Julia Donaldson was, and she did.
