    I ordered 2 days ago and missed the call yesterday. I have phoned them back this morning and the books are on their way to me!

    Fantastic find. Thanks!

    Me too so I emailed yesterday and got a phone call very quickly, and have received the books today! And they are great. I think perhaps they were swamped and a few orders didn't get chased up.

    got my order today and my daughter is thrilled, just this morning she agreed that she would read at least a chapter of a book per day every day of the summer holiday...

    she practically ripped the books from my hands and read 3 chapters of one and has been dipping in and out of another already... quiet time, less electricity useage and a brighter child all for 12.65 (i bought 11 books) bargain! :T

    there may be hope yet, when she was younger she couldn't give books the time of day didn't even want stories read to her, then she went through a huge book reading spurt where she'd bring home half the library every weekend and read them all, then another long dry spell

    finally now though it seems to be more regular, she doesn't read every day, but a few times a week she'll sit down and read 30-50pages in a chapter book at a time. she also no longer complains when i have her read chapters as part of her home ed lessons so don't lose faith just yet!
