Enjoy a bounty of wonderful treats from the author of The Gruffalo! Five of her celebrated books with artist Axel Scheffler, plus one fantastic rhyme illustrated by the brilliantly quirky Lydia Monks! Told in bouncing, comical verse which vividly explores important life lessons, these books are adored by children and grown-ups alike. As well as the unforgettable Gruffalo, with his “terrible tusks and terrible claws”, readers will meet an array of colourful characters: a busking cat, a kindly witch, a very generous giant – and a shy, quiet ladybird who turns out to save the day!
