The Gruffalo's Child by Julia Donaldson - a critique

A book that I read over and over to my children, to the point where I knew it off by heart.

A sequel that builds on its originator.

A child goes out in the snow and explores on her own.

What does she find there? The Big Bad Mouse?

Beautiful illustrations that augment content.

Rhythmic, rhyming throughout - best for reading out aloud.

Like a song!

Will stay with you forever.

    Oh and it has. The gruffalo said that no gruffalo should... My kids are 13 and 11.

  • Awww, this sounds so lovely! Well done!
