Digging to China

Taking the old saying that if you dig far enough, you will come out at China, Donna Rawlins has created a really fun picture book. Alexis lives next door to Marj, an elderly woman. They are great friends and work in the garden together. One time Marj said that she would always have liked to have visited China, and that her mother had told her if she started digging and went far enough, she would come out in China. This provides Alexis with the inspiration she needs, particularly as she needs to get a present for Marj for her birthday....Richly illustrated, imaginative and fun. It also has a lovely story to tell about the friendship between the elderly people, Marj and her husband Bob and the little girl.Thoroughly recommended.
