The Willoughbys by Lois Lowry
This hilarious novel makes fun of elements of many classic children’s stories, including orphans, clueless adults, a baby on a doorstep, a mysterious millionaire living in a crumbling house and, of course, a no nonsense nanny. The glossary at the back is the full of big juicy words riotously defined. Also included is a synopsis of each of the lampooned children’s books.
