Mr Hadlow has worked in East London as a teacher for many years. He also has a young family who enjoy reading and writing. His children and their pets and toys are involved in lots of antics.
In order to inspire and entertain Mr Hadlow’s own children, the children at school and the children beyond, he decided to write about what went on at home.
This is a great book that keeps children engrossed in suspense and fun. I've heard one of the stories read aloud to a class of children and it had them hooked! Highly recommend!
This is a really good children's book that boys and girls will enjoy. I've heard the author read a story and it had me glued.
My children have heard stories from this book read by Mr. Hadlow at his school. They said they were fantastic. I asked what was so good about them and they said, 'Just when you thought something bad had happened and you were holding your breath, it suddenly turned out okay and made you smile and feel happy.' I can't wait to own a copy!
I read the book before reading it to my Granddaughter and enjoyed it so much. Charming short stories that grip you, make you smile and have a feel-good Factor. Also has a great illustration.
Highly recommend.
This is a really great read for children (and adults, it had me hooked). Original excellent stories with all the ingredients that kids love. I highly recommend it!
I read this book to my friend's grandson who loved it and wanted to know if there were any more of these books? I enjoyed reading the book and promised to find out if there are any more books about the Hadlow family, children, toys, and pets.
This Children's book of charming tales about a young family's the adventures with their pets, is a refreshing addition to the genre, well written, well illustrated, and educational as well as entertaining.
It should keep youngsters of all ages turning the pages and waiting for the next set of tales about this family and their pets.
Absolute fabulous children's book, my children love it as do me and my husband. The stories are very comedic and great for bed time, would definitely recommend for children of all ages, amazing!
I've met the author, he's currently the head teacher at Winston Way Academy, Ilford, Essex as well as Shaftesbury Primary, Forest Gate London. The book is great. The children here at school love it, they really like the stories read to them, especially by Mr Hadlow. Children ask him about 'Mr Hadlow Has...' and about his children and creatures daily. Its a superb example for a head teacher to set; writing for children and inspiring them to read and to write.
This is a thoroughly splendid book. My kids won't put it down and ask for one of the stories at bedtime every night. Really excellent, so pleased I bought it for them.
This is a fantastic book, my son loves it. Really good to see a head teacher put his money where his mouth is and write a book for children. The illustrations are great and the stories are highly original. I'm having to read a story every night and to be honest, I don't mind because they are so entertaining.
Mr Hadlow Has... is a terrific little book. My girl loves it and my boy has just got hooked on the story about the snake. Its the favourite bedtime book!
My children enjoy reading these stories out loud to me. I'm so pleased, I never thought my son would be into books. Mr Hadlow Has... is excellent!
Marvellous, marvellous, marvellous! At last a book my boy will read. My Harry really loves 'Mr Hadlow Has...'.
I really like reading this book and I love my mum to read it too me too.
I really like this book. My mum bought it for me and now its my favourite. I'm glad to see Emily is in one of the stories. The one about Boudica is best!
