Every time we depict unnecessary interventions in the childbearing process as routine eg in this case ultrasound scanning and leaving the home environment to give birth we are laying down a legacy which will cause trouble for our children.
It could be argued that these are a common feature of many young children's experience - and so indeed they are. However, we do not see contemporary books for this age group depicting parents smoking, drinking alcohol, hitting the child, all of which are also part of many young children's experience. We would rightly question their routine depiction, and the fact that we unthinkingly embrace the inclusion of routine but for most women unnecessary interventions shows how effective our brainwashing ...

My 2 year old son and I adore this book. He requests it nightly, choosen from 2 huge shelves of books, with a smile from mummy as I don't tire of it either! The illustrations are beautifully drawn, accompanying the story perfectly. The tale rhymes nicely, although if read too quickly becomes a bit of a tongue twister which makes us both laugh. This book was originally recommended to me by a friend, and is now passed on enthusiastically to others. I would recommend the board book to even the youngest of children as the illustrations are lovely, with lots of things to point out and look for. We are just about to invest in our second copy as the original is looking a bit old and battered now! Enjoy!

My kids - aged 2 and 4 - love the original Gruffalo story and ask to read it almost every bedtime. There was initial excitement when I brought this one home. But after a couple of readings they quickly stopped asking for it. If I suggest reading it now, they say "no, we want the first Gruffalo story".
In truth, the original Gruffalo story is so good that it's a very, very tough act to follow. But, even allowing for that, this sequel almost entirely lacks most of the features that make the first story so memorable. It hasn't got anything like the same rhythm in the writing. And the plot meanders its way to a weak pay-off that has little impact and doesn't make much sense. All-in-all, a disappointing follow-up to the excellent original. >>More Details |

Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy is the ideal starter book to this fab series. Its pretty basic compared to some of the later offerings and introduces us to a lot of the characters with its charming rhyming prose. Characters such as "Bottomley Potts, covered in spots" (a dalmation) and "Schnitzel Von-Krumm with the very low tum" (a dachund)(excuse the spelling!). And how could we forget "Scarface Claw" - the toughest tom cat in town, whom my 3 year old is currently totally potty about to the point that he's demanded more books featuring Scarface Claw for Christmas (and its only October). Thankfully he won't be disappointed as there are other books in the series featuring this tough tom cat, including a book dedicated to Scarface Claw himself! Overall I think ... Read More:

Fox's Socks (Tales from Acorn Wood)by: Julia Donaldson July 18, 2003 Best Selling > Children & Baby Books > Books for Babies |

We found this tale of Fox and his search for his clothes lovely and useful. The story is fun. The length of the story and content seems just the right appeal for toddlers (I have a 18m old ) to get interested in learning clothes & then 'getting dressed' too. The lengh of the book seems good for us so that it stays interesting (and usually we like to read it again!). We love 'lift the flap' books too & 'finding the clothes' in this one is fun.

I bought this book for my daughter when she was just three months old as I wanted her to get into books as soon as possible. Even at that age, she loved the colourful pages. Now eight months old, this book is by far her favourite toy. She will look at the pictures and feel the various textures for easily an hour or more! Unlike other 'touch' books, this series has decent sized fabrics and card for the kids to touch and really get their hands in. A visiting toddler (2 years) also loved this book, so I'm sure it will be a favourite for a long time to come.

As a pre-school teacher I urge you never to read this book in your setting again. It perpetuates the belief that men go to work and women stay at home to shop and cook and childcare. Reading this book to children perpetuates a stereotypical outdated image of both family life and individual roles within a family based on gender, and reading it to children sends powerful messages to them about what roles they will be expected to fulfill later in life. Rip it up and throw it away lest you construct children of tomorrow subject to the same limitations based on gender that we are today. Think hard about how you use language in your setting to construct the norms of childhood and challenge all members of staff to be vigilant when using language and reading stories. NEVER ...

This is absolutely a must have book. The book is very large and there are six magical HUGE pop out creations which absolutely jump out of the page like magic. Think intricate origami or the best pop up you could imagine. On each of the main pages there is also a pop up book with text within the book, this time with smaller but still mind numbingly amazing pop ups some with moving parts. The paper on the white rabbits ears are felted, utensils are foil and shiny; there is such great attention to detail on a small and grand scale.
The text is thorough and true to Lewis Carroll's story so it is more a read to your child book than one you can let them play with. An adult will also need to turn the pages and supervise to avoid damaging the book. It's sturdy but bits ... Read More: >>More Details |

The intricacy, layout and artistry of this book is amazing. My children (5 and 2) absolutely love it although they do need to be reminded to be careful of the popups but so far it's survived many readings and curious fingers. Absolutely recommended, especially as a gift.
