Customer Reviews
good old Oliver
I bought 2 of these sets as gifts because my son has the bigger individual books. The stories are so captivating and beautifully illustrated. I am a firm believer in quality fiction for children and Oliver Jeffers truely succeeds. A real treat for the senses
perfect gift
We bought the paperback versions of two of the stories for my toddler, and they are some of her favorite stories. The illustrations are gorgeous, and the stories are simply sweet and wonderful. I will eventually get all the books that Oliver Jeffers has written, as she grows older. Although this set in particular contains much smaller versions of the books than the paperback, it is a perfect set to give as a gift and a good value.
Beautiful, beautiful...
Quite simply beautiful books. My son loves the stories, i love the illustrations. Very special!
