Oh my gosh! This was an absolutely hilarious book! I don't want to go into details to spoil anything, but I'd really like some Feegles hanging around my home just because they'd keep me laughing. I especially loved their brogues and have found myself using "Crivens" and "Oh, Waily Waily" since I've read it.

A fairy tale in Terry Pratchett's skilled hands is a very funny thing to read. This is definitely not just for the teen age readers, although it is good for them as well. This book is a great for reading aloud because you need to read it slowly enough to get ALL the humor. Worth reading just for the Nac Mac Feegles. Granny Weatherwax also makes an appearance.

This book is a lot of fun as young witch Tiffany Aching fights to get her kidnapped brother back from the realm of the fairy Queen. She is helped by a band of pictsies (sic) known as the Nac Mac Feegle. They are the heart of the book and almost always a great source of humor along the lines of the Minions from Despicable Me.

If you are a parent who likes to read to your kids and do fun voices, this book is perfect for you. The Nac Mac Feegle have a fun to do brogue with all sorts of enjoyable comments about head butting the enemy and stealing sheep. There are a handful of specific Feegles so it is easy to assign a voice to each to use throughout the book.
