For my family and me this is still one of THE best picture books ever published. This was Julia and Axel’s first collaboration and is now years later an absolute classic. Simply told through brilliant rhyming text and beautiful illustrations with each and every page exuding fun and entertainment and within it all an important message - be happy with what you have got. Fantastic.
By the creators of "The Gruffalo" and "Monkey Puzzle", this story for children from the age of three shows how the advice from a few farmyard animals and a wise old man enables a little old lady to find that her house isn't such a squash and a squeeze afterall.
Julia Donaldson has written some of the world's best-loved children's books, including modern classics The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo's Child , which together have sold over 25 million copies worldwide and have been translated into over one hundred languages.
Her other books include Room on the Broom, Stick Man and Zog, illustrated by Axel Scheffler, The Hospital Dog, illustrated by Sara Ogilvie and the hugely successful What the Ladybird Heard adventures, illustrated by Lydia Monks.
Julia also writes fiction, including the Princess Mirror-Belle series, illustrated by Lydia Monks, as well as poems, plays and songs – and her brilliant live shows are always in demand.
She was the UK Children’s Laureate 2011–13 and has been honoured with a CBE for Services to Literature.
Julia and her husband Malcolm divide their time between West Sussex and Edinburgh.
