An up-to-date voice and lots of cheerful illustrations
A timeless anthology... told with warmth and humour and complemented by playful and distinctive artwork. An essential addition to any child's library.
Morpurgo's rhthymic, very accessible language and Chichester Clark's amusing and lively artwork combine perfectly to make this book an absolute joy to read alone and as a group ... These are stories for the Literacy Strategy and beyond.
