Felix and the Red Rats
By James Norcliffe
NZ Post Book Awards – Junior Fiction

Reviewed by Judy, 10 years old and interested in drawing, reading and writing.


Felix and the Red Rats is a story about a boy called David, whose Uncle Felix comes to stay.  Uncle Felix writes books and David loves to read them.  Shortly after Uncle Felix arrives, things start to turn red!
Throughout the story, excerpts of Uncle Felix’s book “Into Axillaris” (the book David is reading) are included, so this story is always interesting.
The ending is a big surprise as it has a great twist to it.

I think this is a really splendid book and many other people will enjoy it as much as I have.  You won’t want to put it down until you have finished.  Boys and girls who enjoy mysteries and magic mixed up with ordinary life will love this book.
