This charming little board book, ideal for enquiring little minds and inquisitive little fingers, tells the story of dappy Daisy Duck as she wanders the farmyard looking for a Beastie. Little does Daisy know that the Beastie isn't quite as scary as she is led to believe...

Lovely, washed illustrations combine with easy-to-follow text in this charming and popular story for tiny book lovers.--Susan Harrison

Amazon.co.uk Review

The Beastie wasn't with the chickens...it wasn't with the geese...it wasn't in the barn...then there was a strange noise from the shed...

In Jane Simmon's Daisy and the Beastie, grandpa dozes off just as he finishes telling Daisy the duckling her favourite story, but sadly the story doesn't end well -- the Beastie is still nowhere to be seen. So Daisy decides to leave grandpa snoring happily while she goes off through the barnyard in search of the mysterious creature.

This charming, calming and utterly delightful picture book is beautifully illustrated with washed colour that is sprinkled with a genuine feel for the countryside. The simple story, easy for toddlers to follow and learn, has a rhythmic quality that holds the attention as the little duckling embarks on her journey into the unknown.

Perfect for sharing, and an ideal way to banish those bedtime blues, Daisy and the Beastie is filled with suspense but ultimately conjures up dreamy images of animal life that children and parents will love. (Age 3-5 years) --Susan Harrison
