Synopsis

Tilly loves treasure-hunting - and so does her family. Tilly's mum hides Tilly's breakfast banana in the kitchen. Tilly's dad hides Tilly's toy rabbit in the garage. On Tilly's birthday, Tilly's grandma hides chocolate money all over the house...And Tilly hunts for it. "My treasure!" she cries when she finds it. But at bedtime, it's Tilly's mum and dad who do the hunting! Allan Ahlberg's affectionate appreciation of family love and ritual finds the perfect match in Gillian Tyler's warm and delightfully detailed illustrations.

Absorbing, miniature detail... A cosy and reassuring portrait of an only child in a happy family... offers lots of opportunity for joining in. The Sunday Times; An almost perfect picture book... The story is animated by a tenderness that steers beautifully clear of sentimentality. The Observer
