Sir Seth Thistlethwaite and the Soothsayer's Shoes by Richard Thake
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Sir Seth provides a rambunctious romp through Thake's boyhood imagination. Full of alliteration and surprisingly rhyme-like prose, Sir Seth sets of on a quest to save the soothsayer's stolen shoes. In typical adventure style, he has a sideick and a horse and meets up with some unexpected allies as he battles the Enemy.
I thought it was a fun read and am definitely going to try it as a read aloud with my seven year old son. I think he'll enjoy the playful language and have fun with the characters. I hope I am right!
