|summary=I was reading Terry Deary before he even started writing the ‘Horrible History’ franchise. It seems that as I grew out of children’s non-fiction just as he exploded in popularity, selling millions of books in the series and even spawning a successful TV show (that I admit to watching). It has been years since the first Horrible History book, but they are still popular enough to produce an annual of sorts, but is this a case of annual horribilis?

|title=Lucky
|author=Chris Hill
|rating=3
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=Does enjoyment of a book depend on whether it measures up to expectations? As readers, our initial impressions of a publication are based entirely on the blurb and cover art, although there are plenty of instances where the content doesn't do justice to either. In some cases, it can be a good thing; a book may be a lot better than first expected. However, when the story is completely different to the one that you hoped for, it can leave a somewhat bitter after-taste. My daughter requested ''Lucky'' after seeing the cute cover art and reading the blurb about a little red squirrel trying to save the park. She is a big fan of [[:Category:Holly Webb|Holly Webb]] animal stories and was hoping that this would be written in a similar style.
