What a brilliant title. I already know a small child who it would be perfect for (she once took all the pasta from the cupboard [a lot of pasta], put it on the floor, lay in it & - as she explained to her mum who then walked in - made 'Pasta Angels'.) Also made a leprechaun trap for St Patrick's Day

Sounds like a cunning kid!

I adore her. By the time she was 5, I'd already asked her mum if she could be my SciComm apprentice when she gets to 16 (if she wants to, of course). She painted me a fab rainbow pic too. SO bright. SO creative. SO tiring for her poor, overworked mum. What is min age you'd say Loki is suitable for?

I've known really young kids read it with their parents but I think to get the most out of it it's 8+. But absolutely depends on the kid and they'd still get the bum jokes if not the philosophy!

My youngest would read books on this level at 6. He was obsessed with Derek Landy by about that age, which is on the same spectrum of 8-adulthood. So I think v bright kids, who’re book obsessed would get something out of it at the age- if not grasp everything in it.

Thank you, really useful to have some Real Child context!

Perfect. She's (obviously) really bright. But I do worry Loki *may* become her invisible friend once they're introduced, which may not be ideal for her lovely mum

Apologies in advance
