This month I have once again managed to review another two books that are squarely aimed at each gender:
The first is for the girls, mainly the 5-7 year olds, and is a very sweet tale, Clementine Rose and the Treasure Box , by Jacqueline Harvey
Review: Clementine Rose and the Treasure Box
The second is primarily for the boys, Three (The Last Thirteen, #11)
by James Phelan for the older YA market (11-14 year olds) , it is a bit of a commitment thought, with thirteen books in the series, the last one due for release in December, just in time for Christmas. It has short sharp chapters, but can often be difficult to follow in terms of plot.
Review: Three (The Last Thirteen, #11)
Let me know if there are any particular books that you would like to see reviewed here, and I will do my best!
Happy reading.

Something for the Boys, Something for the Girls
In my new role as a reviewer for Creative Kids Tales I have been lucky enough to review two books this week to review two excellent books for the 4-9 year old age group
The 26 Storey Tree House and Pearlie Goes to Rio .
While both books tend to enforce the entrenched gender stereo types that proliferate the literature for this age group, the 26 Storey Treehouse is definitely worthy of a good laugh for both sexes. Stay tuned next week for the review of the latest book in the series - The 52 Storey Treehouse.
