by Nick Sharratt (Illustrator), Julia Donaldson (Author)
There's a commotion in the classroom as Goat and the other animals spend the day at playgroup. The musical instruments and the dressing up box are lots of fun, but - oh dear! - Goat gets into a muddle or two. Even the smallest toddler will enjoy the wonderfully silly animal antics in this book -- the ideal story for any child starting at, or already attending, a playgroup or nursery. Trademark Julia Donaldson rhymes and rhythms are perfect to read aloud, and Nick Sharratt's mischievous and funny illustrations make the bright and playful Goat Goes to Playgroup a sure winner. Just right for toddlers! Look out for: Hippo Has a Hat, Chocolate Mousse for Greedy Goose, One Mole Digging a Hole, Toddle Waddle and Animal Music.
