Enjoy a bounty of treats from the much-loved author of The Gruffalo! These wonderfully witty favourites from the current Children’s Laureate are brimming with jaunty rhymes and jolly surprises. Told in bouncing, comical rhymes which vividly explore important life lessons, they are beautifully illustrated by two of her best-known artistic collaborators, Axel Scheffler and Lydia Monks. Inside, you’ll meet an array of colourful characters including a grumpy hermit crab, a very generous giant and an enthusiastic dragon who always gives his all!
