Lynley Dodd By Shakia Gregory-Hunt

Lynley uses Hairy Maclary in most of her stories. But she uses other characters as well not just Hairy Maclary.

The setting is in the neighbour hood / home.

The problems in most of her books are sad problems but sometimes they are happy and enthusiastic.

Lynley's endings are are mostly happy :) but sometimes they are sad :( endings.

She doesn't use much similes she only uses similes sometimes! But she uses exaggerations. Rhyme and repition as well !!!!!!

My feelings when i was reading the three books she wrote i was feeling happy :) and not down because it is not sad .

Lynley Dodd By Hayley


Lynley Dodd is a talented children's book writer who has sold over 5 million books worldwide.
She normally writes about animals in the neighbourhood.
She uses a lot of rhyme.
The problems are fun and adventurous with wonder.
In the endings they are good and happy to read.
I recommend these books for ages 3-7.

Lynley Dodd by DYLAN HOLLAND

Lynley Dodd

Lynley Dodd was born in Rotorua in 1941 and she uses alliteration and some onomatopoeia and rhyme. She always uses animals as her main characters and animals or people as her minor characters. Lynley Dodd usually writes books in series and has written lots of books all of them childrens. She usually has the settings out in the neigbourhood. She doesn't use similes or metaphors but does use some hyperbole. Lynley Dodd's books are good and I would recommend them to kids about 3 to 11 years of age.

Joy Cowley By nick

Joy Cowley uses very different types of characters like animals, people and even narrators and always uses different settings like the Arctic, and theme parks and the local neighbourhood

Joy Cowley uses very different problems like being lost being to young or being trapped

Joy Cowley uses the same kinds of endings like funny, happy, peaceful

Joy Cowley barely ever uses smileys i read 3 of Joy Cowley's book's and I only found 2 similes

i personally have been reading Joy Cowley since i was like 3 and i have always loved Joy Cowley I personally recommend Joy Cowley for children


Pamela Allen By Eva


Pamela Allen, is a New Zealand writer and illustrater. She uses a lot of animals in her stories and sometimes uses humans. Pamela's stories are mainly set outside. She uses hyperboles with her animals talking. In most of Pamela's stories she uses onomatopoeia. She aways uses happy endings. Pamela is married to a sculpture and lecturer. I really enjoy Pamela's series called Mr Mcgee.

Tony Mittion by Hamish


As an Author Tony Mittion uses rhyme. His main characters are vehicles he has animals but they aren't the main characters.


He bases his story on the same thing. there's a problem and the problem gets solved Tony Mittion was born 1951. He was a son of a soldier.He lives with his wife and two kids. i think tony story's are for five years and under.
