Love and Marriage Among the Feathered.....

What do you get when you combine Lottie's funny, good-hearted friend Dodo and an old, cranky and lonely helicopter rescue pilot, Captain Vince? Another picture book winner from Petra Mathers. Poor Captain Vince was injured in a rescue mission and lost a leg. He now sits home alone, day in and day out, feeling sorry for himself. That is until the wonderful exuberant Dodo pushes her way into his life and within no time, the two are inseparable. He proposes marriage in a most unique way. She says YES in a style all her own and the wedding is on. And even a wedding eve disaster can't dampen the love of this match made in heaven..... Petra Mathers' sweet, and engaging story will put a big smile on the faces of children and adults, alike. The simple, gentle and amusing text is complemented by her wonderfully expressive, bold and bright illustrations full of charming, familiar, special details. This is the fourth book of Ms Mathers' Lottie and Herbie series and fans will be thrilled to see a whole book about a favorite character, exotic Dodo. For those new to these delightful stories, make sure you read them all...Lottie's New Beach Towel, Lottie's New Friend and A Cake for Herbie.

Perfect Whimsey

Petra Mathers' books always have charm and wit. Dodo Gets Married has imagination and gives the reader the chance to add to the tale with the superb illustrations that complement the story. It also introduces an element of complexity into the story of a lonesome man, with a sadness in his past, made joyful by the love and affection of charming Dodo. After four books in a series one has a life to follow in the various characters that adds dimension. I look forward to the next in the series with great anticipation.
