This is a great books for young children. I saw the cover of this book and immediately wanted to buy it. Good thing it was only $13.99 at Dymocks.
The cover and illustrations remind me of Roald Dahl books with the Quintin Blake illustrations. I love how the drawings are simple black ink, but tell so much about what is happening. The facial expressions are especially good.
I really recommend this book for small children and big kids at heart.
