Summary

Auggie and his magical companions are tending to the Fabled Stables when the building shakes and shudders to make room for a new arrival: the Tattle-Tail。 Auggie and friends travel through the portal to a town called Rainbow’s End in search of this mysterious creature。 Auggie assumes that the Tattle-Tail is in danger, but he learns that it’s actually the town that needs rescuing 。 。 。 from an infestation of Tattle-Tails!
These talking tails have taken over, attaching themselves to every backside in town (including Auggie’s!)。 The Tails tattle on whomever they’re attached to: She picked her nose! He just double-dipped! The constant stress of being tattled on has thrown all of Rainbow’s End into chaos!
Soon, Auggie and friends hatch a plan to collect the Tattle-Tails and bring them safely to the Stables—foiling a pair of evil bank robbers along the way。

Charming! My 8-yo tried to refuse the book, but I started reading, and before I knew it, he was peeping over my shoulder to ask questions about the illustrations。 So we had to start over at the beginning :-) Enthusiastic thumbs up from both of us。

This beautiful book is pitched at the confident chapter book reader, but probably on the younger side。 It would be a lovely book to read to a younger person, say five and up。The Fabled Stables are a wonderful invention, just right for children who love animals but like a bit of fun and fantasy to go with them。 In this tale, there are two problem animals: the squidgy lump who doesn't seem to do anything, and the tattle-tails, who are hilarious。 And very irritating if one of them happens to attach This beautiful book is pitched at the confident chapter book reader, but probably on the younger side。 It would be a lovely book to read to a younger person, say five and up。The Fabled Stables are a wonderful invention, just right for children who love animals but like a bit of fun and fantasy to go with them。 In this tale, there are two problem animals: the squidgy lump who doesn't seem to do anything, and the tattle-tails, who are hilarious。 And very irritating if one of them happens to attach itself to you, because it calls out anything you've done wrong。It's not only a cracking tale, it's beautifully illustrated, as you can see from the cover。 Most pages have an illustration to accompany the plot。 The font changes for the main speakers, which will help a younger child keep track of who's who。 The words are alliterative or rhyming without it being poetry。 Just right for kids to repeat with a giggle。 Beautifully put together。 A treat for any adult who has to read it over and over again to their young person。I may even buy the series for my great-nieces and nephew。 。。。more

Thank you to the publisher for the free copy to review。I read this aloud to my 5 year old and she loved this one just as much as the first book! I was very happy to learn about another highly illustrated chapter book series that hits the sweet spot between picture book and chapter book。 With full color pictures on every spread, this series is very similar to the format of The Princess in Black and Mercy Watson。 The entire thing can easily be read in one sitting if desired。The Tattle Tails were a Thank you to the publisher for the free copy to review。I read this aloud to my 5 year old and she loved this one just as much as the first book!

In fact, they are tattle tails。 The villagers will do anything to get rid of the pesky critters。 Auggie hatches a plan that will tame the tails and benefit another creature at the stable。 The Rooks are still around and get a small taste of their own medicine, thanks to Fen。 Working together, the friends are soon back on the top of the world - with a new addition to the menagerie。 With all of the colorful illustrations, this is a great choice for kids moving beyond readers into chapter books。 Thank you to Net Galley and the publisher for the e-galley! 。。。more

Finn must save a Tattle Tail, which proves to be difficult。 Someone has stolen the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow and the tattle tails are multiplying。 A satisfying read。 Grades 1-3。

First sentence: At the top of the world sat an island。 At the heart of that island lived a boy named Auggie。 Auggie was just like most other boys, except in one way。 He had a job。 Auggie worked in the Fabled Stables--a magical place full of one-of-a-kind creatures。Premise/plot: Auggie--joined by an eager Willa (whom we met in book 1) and a reluctant Fen (whom we also met in book 1)--work together to save a town from an invasive and replicating menace: tattle tails。 These talking tails literally First sentence: At the top of the world sat an island。 At the heart of that island lived a boy named Auggie。 Auggie was just like most other boys, except in one way。 He had a job。 Auggie worked in the Fabled Stables--a magical place full of one-of-a-kind creatures。Premise/plot: Auggie--joined by an eager Willa (whom we met in book 1) and a reluctant Fen (whom we also met in book 1)--work together to save a town from an invasive and replicating menace: tattle tails。 These talking tails literally drive people crazy by their incessant talking or tattling as the case may be! It all started with one person's curiosity。。。My thoughts: I really loved the first book in the series。 I enjoyed this one too。 I'm not sure I would go so far as to say that I loved it absolutely。 I love the idea of the series。 I love the creativity and humor。 And Jonathan Auxier is a great writer。 (I definitely have a bias since he's written some of my favorite, favorite, favorite books。) This is his series for young readers。 It's an early chapter book with a lot of illustrations。 They are ever-so-loosely connected to some of his other books in that they both mention a Professor Cake。 。。。more
