This book had us smiling from beginning to end, it is very
true and correct to what we see daily on the slopes. Hats off to Richard Liddle
who wrote the story, it is evident form the book that his experience shines
through. Monty is a curious Marmot who is keen to not only see and explore the
mountains but to do it on ski's. After seeing everyone else having fun he wants
to see what he is missing out on. With the help of his new friend Mortimer,
that's exactly what he does. With some ups and downs on his way Monty is eager
to head back for more.
The story incorporates terminology that children will hear in
lessons, so introducing them to this through a fun story is a great way to
start them off. I would read this to children before they go on holiday,
especially to apprehensive children, to show them what fun can be had.
