Roald Dahl Bookathon : The Giraffe and the Pelly and Me by Roald Dahl

Title
The Giraffe and the Pelly and Me
Author
Roald Dahl
Publisher
Puffin Books
Rating
5/5


4 friends. 1 creative idea. 1 amazing business.
Window Cleaning Company ran by a boy named Billy and his 3 friends;The Giraffe, The Pelly and The Monkey. Billy's dream is to have a candy shop. 

Imagine this.
Windows cleaning crew with no pail and no ladder.
I would say, cost effective! $.$

No need for a ladder. Thanks to The Giraffe.
No need for a pail. Thanks to The Pelly.
The Monkey? He cleans the windows of course!
How can these talk to humans? Here comes Billy the manager. =)

With great friendship and hardwork, luck came into place. The team managed to capture the criminal at the  Duke of Hampshire's house where they were hired to clean the windows. The reward is of course very fruitful!

I will leave it to you to have these friends running in your head cleaning up windows and you'll never know if they will pop into a candy store near you! LOL!

Booking Through Thursday - 19042012


What are your literary “pet peeves”?

My answer:
1. Slowwww moving storyline.
2. Sad ending!
3. Blurry ending! Some say it is the author's intention to leave it to reader's imagination but I want to know more!I need a definite ending! :p
4. Author not up to their normal standard. For example, Author A writes magical stories but in her newly published book, there is soooo little magic injected in it. This saddens me. I need the "ummmppphhh". ;)
5. Super long sentences.
6. Repeating points! This is definitely true for some non-fiction books...

Guess I better end this post here. LOL!
