The first two books featuring Lucy and her wolf friend, 2.15, who acquired his unlikely name from a train, were a great success with my children both as read-alouds and for solo reading, so I've no doubt that this will be a winner too. Here 2.15 undergoes something of a character change when he and 3.45 become the proud parents of three cubs. All 2.15's old friends - Lucy's mum and dad, Grandad and Gran, not to mention the irascible Pete Grubb and his wife Lily - are featured, and the fun, or rather chaos, starts when 2.15, now a confirmed vegetarian, makes arrangements for the christening celebration of his new offspring. Don't miss this one.
