Featured Reviews

The Adventures of Snuffle Truffle Friends is a delightful and whimsical collection of poems that will captivate young readers with its imaginative tales. Each poem introduces a unique animal character with mysterious and wondrous differences—such as a dog with wings and a ferret who lives in blue jeans—that spark curiosity and delight. The playful language and creativity in each poem are sure to engage children’s imaginations, while also offering a refreshing take on familiar animals in the most unexpected ways.

The illustrations are absolutely gorgeous, perfectly complementing the lyrical charm of the poems. The colorful, detailed artwork brings each whimsical character to life, making the book visually enchanting from start to finish.

While some minor grammatical editing is needed, the overall enjoyment of the book far outweighs this. The poems are fun, quirky, and full of surprises that make them a joy to read aloud. The Adventures of Snuffle Truffle Friends is a perfect read for parents, educators, or anyone looking to introduce children to the magic of poetry and the endless possibilities of imagination. A truly lovely addition to any children's book collection!

The Adventures of Snuffle Truffle and Friends is a collection of mainly slant rhyme stories about various animals (and one human ghost). Each also includes black and white illustrations. It could be read all at once or poem by poem. My kiddos enjoyed Annie, The Windy Donkey, probably for obvious reasons. Younger readers would need help due to level of some words (ex: abattior).

Thanks to Troubador Publishing Ltd. and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.

I liked the book because it's different than most kids books - it's whimsical, more fantasy based, and odd in a good way. The illustrations are great and really help with the visualization of the stories/poems.

I gave it four stars because of some grammatical issues. Also for me the cover doesn't match the books vibe at all. I thought it was for smaller kids but some of the language and ideas are more advanced.
