The Beano Annual 2009 by DC Thompson



This Beano annual has all the favourite Beano stars within, such as Dennis the Menace and Minnie the Minx, as well as some of the newer ones, like Pirates of the Caribeano, and all in full-colour too. What more could you want?


Highlights include:
* A Bash Street Kids musical
* A look at Roger the Dodger's ancestors
* Cameo appearances from Beano stars of old such as the Nibblers and the Bash Street Pups



If I was nit-picking I could find some faults:
* The 7 wonders of Beanotown weren't strictly based on the 7 wonders of the world (so not good educationally)
* The 4-part strip based on reservoir dogs was (in my eyes) not well drawn or scripted (although the concept was good)
* Walter's mum is different inside the book compared with the more familiar version on the back cover



But that is just nit-picking.
