Cockadoodle-Doo, Mr Sultana!

Cockadoodle Doo Mr Sultana

---

He doesn't waste time on description or characterisation and makes it clear that those who are wealth sit fat on their greed whereas those who are good shall be rewarded. What makes this Michael Morpurgo's telling of a story set in possibly Turkey or Iran, this is a lovely traditional tale with plenty of repeating language, humour and classic good vs evil, rags to riches elements to it. What makes this a slightly more interesting tale to others is that the hero is a rooster rather than a human.

I think this twist will be appealing to the child reader and they will also enjoy the idea of the huge Sultan getting his comeuppance. Jan 06, joanne littleton rated it liked it.
