More lift-the-flap adventures from Acorn Wood: Squirrel’s Snowman, Mole’s Spectacles and Badger’s Band. the problem is four pop ups are the same - books and the kiddo is not really interested in discovering tiny differences between them.

Lift the flaps and join in the fun with Cat's Cookbook, a new story in the bestselling Tales from Acorn Wood preschool series by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, creators of The Gruffalo. My daughter has broken flaps in previous books in this series and I wonder if it’s a matter of time before she rips one of these - I’m thinking the particularly teeny and fiddly green book. Axel Scheffler is a star illustrator whose instantly recognizable, warm and witty illustrations have achieved worldwide acclaim and numerous awards. The illustrations are truly lovely and they have provided great opportunities for discussing friendship, woodland animals, and in this story, different colours (the books), food and sharing with friends.

My novel The Giants and the Joneses is going to be made into a film by the same team who made the Harry Potter movies, and I have written three books of stories about the anarchic Princess Mirror-Belle who appears from the mirror and disrupts the life of an otherwise ordinary eight-year-old. My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed this book and all of the other books in the Tales of Acorn Wood series since she was about 8 months old.A slight shame about this book and the other books in the series is that some of the flaps are very small, and therefore fragile.

The angles in particular of the book flaps seem to make them prone to damage, even with supervision.
