📚 Hoot Factor – ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This book was brilliant! It was packed full of facts, but they were all told in a funny and disgusting way (which made them even better). I didn’t realise how many horrible and hilarious things had happened in Stratford! It made history feel exciting and alive. 🎨 Owl-some Illustrations – ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The horrible highlights map was my favourite! It helped me picture where all the weird and wonderful events happened, and the drawings made it even more fun. I kept going back to look at the funny pictures. 💡 Little Owl’s Takeaway – ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ History isn’t just boring old stuff, it's full of strange people, silly customs, and gruesome goings-on! I learned loads about Stratford-upon-Avon, and I’d love to visit now and see if I can spot any of the places from the book. 💬 Hoot or Boot? – 5/5 Hoots – Massive Hoot! I absolutely loved this one! It was gross, funny, and super informative. If you like learning cool things while giggling and going “ewww,” this book is for you!
