Media Reviews
This edition, in the colourful Let's Read series, has all the text and illustrations of the original,but smaller format as befits a reading. The repetition and rhyming text are perfect for beginner readers and there are plenty of clues in the pictures too. * Parents in Touch *
When we had finished reading the story together Owl and Monkey took turns to read it themselves, and then the three older children drew some pictures * Caterpillar Tales *
