  1. This book made me truly fall in love with Neil Gaiman. I really enjoyed how Bod went to school and taught some of the bullies a lesson. I found the book to have a good mix of different elements including fantasy. I hope Neil Gaiman writes another book very quickly.

    1. Hi Con,
      I've also read Neil Gaiman's Instructions, Coraline, The Wolves in the Walls and The Day I Swapped My Dad For Two Goldfish. I'm reading Odd And The Frost Giants at the moment.

    2. Ahh yes Odd And The Frost Giants is a novel we have in the classroom. Are you enjoying it? I have heard that it isn't one of Gaiman's strongest books but it looks interesting. Isn't the character in the book also called Bod?
