The Way To Treasure Island

This was an adorable book. This is the story of Matilda going on a treasure hunt with her dad and getting lost in the way. It was a sweet father- daughter story. The illustrations and coloring was absolutely stunning. A great book!

The Way to Treasure Island by Lizzy Stewart was an endearing children's book. The illustrations are bright and fun and will keep a child's attention. Matilda and her dad are opposites, but when they are together they always have fun! The story can be used to show flexibility and how important compromising can be. Great for use with students with autism to show that even if you deviate from the plan a little you can still get to same place.

This is such a sweet book about a little girl and her dad. The illustrations are lovely and the story is entertaining. I love reading stories about kids and their parents going on adventures and having fun even with their differences.

Matilda and her dad are very different. “They don’t always see eye to eye, but they always have fun together!” This heartwarming story shows the beauty of differences, proving the theme that humans are stronger together. The colorful, full-page illustrations are brilliant and stunning.

The Way To Treasure Island by Lizzy Stewart is a beautiful story about the bond between a father and daughter, and reminds young readers that if we all embrace our differences, life will be more fun and rewarding.

Mathilda and her Dad couldn't be more different. When they set off together to find a hidden treasure, Dad is easily distracted and Mathilda is frustrated that he is not as focused as she is on the task at hand. When they find the treasure together, they recognize that their differences have ultimately brought them to the same place, and recognize the joy that comes from sharing our experiences with those we love.

With beautiful illustrations and a positive message, this lovely book will be a nice addition to any bookshelf.

The story is full of creative artwork and will inspire little imaginations who will I'm sure be keen to find their own treasure.

This was a quick, fun read! The illustrations were very vivid and beautiful! I liked the story, and how they both had so much more fun together than apart.

This adorable adventure is the perfect way to teach children if you compromise and embrace each other’s differences, they can still have fun with those who are their exact opposite.⁣

This sweet story is fun, engaging, colorful, and perfect for toddlers all the way through early elementary.

This was fun to read but I wish the dad was the responsible kind.

And yes, the child being more mature and realistic is a bit uncomfortable for me to read.

But the know the purpose of the same. The father-daughter duo gets a chance to explore places when they get lost.

I love the idea.

And I love the illustrations. Basic and beautiful.

Thank you, authors and publisher, for the advance reading copy.

Lovely illustrations and a sweet story line. I love it when dad's are the adult in the story. This particular dad happens to remind me of my own husband and the father of my many, many children. He's always falling asleep and getting distracted, too. We love him.

You would expect the responsible, organised family member to be the parent, and the child easily distracted and ready for adventure, but this is not the case in The Way To Treasure Island. Matilda is the sensible, careful planner, and her Dad is a ‘let’s just go and see what happens’ type. He may not know where he’s going but he enjoys the adventure, Matilda may know exactly where she’s going, but doesn’t have time to appreciate everything around her.

It reminds me so much of a holiday I had with a friend. We arrived at a new city and I was ready to get the map out and make a plan, but no, let’s just go and explore my friend suggested.
So we went. After 5 minutes she asked me where we were going…I don’t know I said, you wouldn’t let me look at the map.

There is something to be said for having an adventure, but it might be even better if there is some form of planning.

I think what this book really says, is, that no matter our differences, adventures are more fun if you have someone to go on them with you.

This is a sweet story about a girl and her dad and the differences between the two. They go on an adventure looking for a hidden treasure, only to realize that the treasure most important is that they have each other and learn to appreciate their differences. It was cute.

The Way to Treasure Island by Lizzy Stewart is an adorable tale of a father and daughter who are complete opposites. As Matilda and her dad set off to find Treasure Island, they get lost along the way, due to their differences in opinion, but have a lot of fun. The true treasure is the relationship between them.

This story is beautifully written and the illustrations are lovely. I recommend this book for home libraries for fathers and daughters to share a love of reading and spending time together.

Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group for the eARC in exchange for an honest review.

My daughter and I enjoyed this fun children's book, which has lovely, colourful graphics. The story is about a girl called Matilda and her dad who go on a little adventure to a treasure island. They are both very different, but they use their unique skills and gifts to find a solution to their problem. Although they are different, they still have a good time doing their own thing and then meeting up to have fun together.
