Advance Praise
I was searching for "adventure books for little boys" to buy for my son for his 5th birthday. This book came up in the top recommended choices, and seemed much more appealing than the others. The copy we received was signed by Maria Kamoulakou, which was a nice personal touch. The chapters are short and full of description with illustrations on each page, but the book itself is not short; which we prefer. We like to have a new chapter every night. I highly recommend Arthur The Fly-Slayer for anyone looking for great adventure stories. We will be looking out for other books by Mrs. Kamoulakou!
