I have plans, probably in a few years, to read every single of these books and re-live all the Biff, Chip and Kipper adventures. Mar 19, Dominic Aveiro rated it it was amazing. I loved this series as a child. Moreover, I loved it so much, I called my dog, Floppy.

This story reached new lows of lameness in the Oxford Reading Tree series. The children undergo the Borrowers experience, shrinking to mouse size and playing with a giant pencil and pin before trying to break into their dollhouse. They then cower from a mouse that's more afraid of them.

They return to normal size and then have the audacity to call it an 'adventure'! Feb 26, Nicola rated it did not like it Shelves: picture-books , step-2 , early-reader. Miss 3 and I like to explore different books and authors at the library, sometimes around particular topics or themes.

This was a random selection. She didn't find it particularly appealing or interesting. I didn't either; the idea of shrinking and entering the dollhouse was cool but the text wasn't the best. Jul 06, oluwayemisi lateef rated it it was amazing.

When the key glowed I too got lost in the adventures of Kipper. Aug 31, Chanelle Ambersley rated it really liked it. It is a book that follows three children - Biff, Chip and Kipper; and their parents, grandmother and dog. Whilst I was growing up this story taught me to use my imagination in creating my own short stories.

The fact that these stories are not real showed me how broad my creativity could really be. As someone who has always enjoyed reading, I would have preferred if the stories were longer. But I do understand now that this may be a reason for most children's love of these stories; their ability to be interested and move on to another short story.

Most reviews have recommended these stories for ages 4 to 9; but I feel that it is not challenging enough for KS2 learners and would be better suited to develop the reading of KS1 children only. I believe that these books are being used in the right way in most schools.

They have been written in a way that engages a child and encourages them to develop their reading skills. Sep 09, Shima Uddin rated it liked it.

Roderick Hunt is famously known for his storybooks of Biff and Chip. His books follow the lives of three children Biff, Chip and kipper as they experience many adventures caused by the magic key. There are many stages to the sequence of books, with the starting age from four to nine. These books are used to develop the understanding and reading of standard English.

Jan 18, Farhin rated it it was amazing. I read The Magic Key books in primary school from years and these are the most memorable books of my time! I absolutely loved these when I was kid and I really want to get my hands on my own copy for nostalgia's sake.

We had a reading system in our school where you had to complete all the stages of The Magic Key until you could read books of your choice - and I distinctly remember becoming one of the first "free-readers" of my year! Biff, Chip and Kipper books are by far the most memorable books from my primary school and i have to say my all time favourite has got to be the magic key!

In the television show, Floppy wears a collar around his neck with a golden key upon it. The key is magic, as the title suggests, and seems to do some strange things whenever one of the children asks a question and Floppy wishes for something.

It starts to glow and transports the children, Floppy and sometimes their grandmother through a vortex to other worlds, where they have exciting adventures, such as dealing with trolls in an underground cavern, being characters inside a computer game, or finding the Fountain of Youth and when the adventure is done, they get a gift and the key glows and they all go home.

In the books the key is kept in a box which opens the door to a dolls house and Floppy does not go on all the adventures. As well as Biff, Chip and Kipper Robinson, four other children also appear in the stories and occasionally find themselves in the adventures caused by the Magic Key, namely Wilf and Wilma Page, Nadim Shah whose mother and father own the local corner shop which features in a couple of the stories , and Anneena Patel.
