“This book is about a boy named "Billy" in England that loved a candy shop so much that he went there everyday but one day, the candy shop was empty except for a very long door and a sign that said "SOLD". Billy soon found out that a Giraffe, a Pelican and a monkey lived there and that they where all window cleaners. Just then, a man came out of a car and said that the duke went past the house and thought that her windows had to be cleaned. Billy also found out that the Pelican's beac could enlarge so the boy hopped in his beac and went off to the duke's house to clean the windows but on the way of the cleaning was a robber called the "Cobra" and he came into the house.”

This is a interesting book filled with adventures and sadness. This book is a great book. ”
“It is a very good read aloud book that you can read and have fun with. Especially for little kids. There are also poems in the book. I did not like it because it did not challenge me at all.”
