  Outside of the ongoing central conflict, the gang's interaction with Bluster and Robbie also allow adults to touch on deeper thematic issues.

This 4 out of 5 star title allows us to confront so many issues that might be important to kids growing up these days while not really intruding upon our adult sensibilities if we're merely reading for our own enjoyment.

I'd have to admit to a new found fondness for a certain bear and these amusing Whiffles. For grown-up fans, I guess itll depend on how fondly you remember the world of Care-a-Lot from first time round. Read Full Review
