Just Right

Just Right

by RosalindBeardshaw (Author), Birdie Black (Author)

Synopsis

The King finds the perfect soft, red cloth to make the Princess a cloak for Christmas. Once the cloak is made, the leftover cloth is put outside where, in turn, it is found by someone and made into a different present. Each gift gets smaller and smaller as the leftover cloth diminishes - but it's still just right - until the last teeny bit of cloth is used to make a scarf for the smallest mouse to keep him warm from the winter chill. Rhythmical writing and vibrant and energetic pictures bring to life this lovely story with a perfect Christmas message that giving to your loved ones is just as much fun as receiving.

She has also illustrated a couple of her own stories: Grandma's Beach and Grandpa's Surprise. She loves creating new characters, especially if they can be based loosely/wholly on her shaggy lurcher, Basil. She lives in York with her partner, Al, daughter, Iris, and young son, Freddie, who loves watching Calamity Jane. Who knows what Doris Day's influence will be...?
