The elephants are twins, their names are Sid and Dan. Sometimes they get mixed up.
One day they didn't want to get mixed up anymore, so they put different coloured paint on each other. Sid had green and Dan had red.
I liked the cheeky monkey in the book

Bonny does not want to go to Charm School, no matter how much Mum needs her to take a one-day class.
And it's just as bad as she has feared. Worse, in fact.
For Charm School is filled with awful, scratchy, self-obsessed girls who are prepared to do almostanything to win the much-coveted 'Glistering Tiara' ...

The secret zoo by Bryan Chick.
Reviewed by Harriet (age 9)
It's about a zoo but within the zoo there is a secret zoo where the animals can move and use sign language and give notes to each other. There are 4 children and they call themselves The Action Scouts. One of them goes missing and the story is about the group trying to rescue the missing one.
I thought the book was interesting, funny and at some points a little scary.

Who has rescued Bella? Who could be so small and be alone on this remote beach?" (Amazon.com)

Biddy and her friends and family are caught up in the consequences of things that happened a long time ago. A powerful tale of friendship and families. Suitable for mature readers".
