The big problem is the editing. ''Who is Charlie Keeper?'' suffers from poor punctuation and too many instances of dodgy syntax. It's nothing that couldn't be ironed out with some thorough proof-reading, but it really does interrupt the flow of reading. I don't much like reading sentences twice to be sure of the meaning and emphasis, and children are, by and large, less patient and tolerant than reviewers. There are too many errors for them not to be distracting. This aside - although I think it is a serious problem - the book has a great core. It's big-hearted, open, pacy and exciting, so kudos to it for that.
