Rating: WORTHY!
So it's once again time to look at some more children's books before this month gets too serious. Here are a few, and it's a mixed bag, starting with this one which was amusingly titled and tells the tale of Macca - the alpaca - who is a friendly sort of a guy, but then he meets Harmer the Llama, who isn't a charmer and the contest begins, Macca seeming always to come out ahead.
I like the way Macca uses his brains (when he could easily have used Brian's...) and how brawn doesn't count for much in this contest. The illustrations were amusing and nicely-drawn and colored and the story was a warm one, so I commend this as a worthy read although it occurs to me that the author might have chosen less potentially controversial colors than white and brown for his animals.
