Customer Reviews

Charlie Cooks favourite book
Fantastic book. My four year old has had me read this book so many times she knows it word perfect. The rhyming is great. So easy to read and enjoy as an adult too. A real classic like their other books, funny and well illustrated.

Perseverance pays off...
Initially I was quite disappointed by this book. I think this was because I was just looking for another Gruffalo and this is quite different. The basic premise is that each page is concerned with a different book which leads on to the next one. After a few reads I have changed my mind though and feel it has a great pace and rhythm. It also has quite a lot of details on the various pages for identifying. Warning that one of the "books" does feature a headless ghost who carries her head around with her at night til she puts it back on to read her favourite book - personally I thought this was not offensive in any way and certainly not scary to any children I know, but of course there may be more sensitive children out there...as per one of the other reviews.

Brilliant
My 2 year old daughter loves all of these books - very imaginative stories - great illustrations - pages contain lots of detail she really enjoys.
