Daisy May's Daydream Parade: Treasure Island Adventure by Arran Francis - Audio Book Blitz & Review
Daisy May's Daydream Parade
Eight-year-old Daisy May is the writer and star of her very own TV show, Daisy May’s Daydream Parade, which broadcasts live and exclusively in her imagination.
In the latest episode, Daisy May finds herself on a desert island where she discovers a map that leads to buried treasure, but what appears to be a simple quest to find riches soon turns into a roller-coaster ride as evil pirates, grumpy gorillas and a fire breathing dragon stand in her way. However, when travelling across polluted ocean waters and trash covered beaches, Daisy May soon realises that the hunt for treasure can wait — there’s a much bigger issue in need of urgent attention.
Written by Arran Francis, multiple series creator for BBC CBeebies Radio, Daisy May’s Daydream Parade audiobooks show how 8-year-old Daisy May confronts her real life problems in the stories she writes as she floats off into her daydream adventures.

My Review
Daisy May's Daydream Parade: Treasure Island Adventure is a fun children's audio book that has entertaining narration, complete with silly voices. Geared towards kids ages 6-10 (but anyone of any age can enjoy), the story follows Daisy May as she acts out a special episode of her own TV show via her imagination. There are talking animals, pirates, adventure, and more! Plus, the story also tackles the subject of pollution on beaches.
The audio book is easy to listen to. The narrator has a mellow, melodic sounding voice that will engage kids and make them feel as though they're actually watching a TV show starring Daisy May. And the story has a great message: while hunting for treasure and going on an adventure is great fun, saving the Earth and cleaning up yucky trash and pollution is more important.
I really enjoyed the story, and I would recommend it to parents of young readers. Definitely worth the listen.
5 stars!

Having previously written and produced series for BBC’s CBeebies Radio and produced hundreds of audiobooks working with Audio Factory, it felt like a natural progression to write children’s novels for audiobook format. I’m thrilled to have launched the series Wombat & Jones and Daisy May’s Daydream Parade in 2019 and excited that more titles are on the way in 2020.
