This is such a great book! At least as good as the Gruffalo one. The pictures are very nice, the story is great, and told with short verses that rhyme, so it really is like singing the story.
+ links to the 6 areas quite easily.
One of my and the children favourite, never tired to tell it again and again!
Does anyone have the Activity book that goes with it? Is it worth having? ;)

This is dd's favourite story :thumbsup:

We dont have the activity book but I had to hunt on line for a snail and humpback whale figure.

We have the set of Julia Donaldson cd's of the favourite stories and songs and we play them in the car every journey :rolleyes:

Hi thanks I hadn't thought about the CDs! Will try to get copies from the library or buy them. I will also try to get hold of the activity book and post comments.
Many thanks!
