My Review
Five Minutes, Alfie is an adorable children's picture book about a little boy named Alfie who is given an extra five minutes before he needs to rise and shine. He drifts off to dreamland, and there he becomes a brave king who must face a dragon. Does he succeed in helping the village move the dragon away from the gate he slumbers in front of?
I thought this was a great read. The pictures are engaging and bright. The story itself has an underlying message of helping others and working together. It's also a "loud" story, with noises being featured to wake the dragon. Young readers will enjoy shouting along with the rhyming scheme the story features.
Five stars from me!
