A joy to read aloud . . . The fine and delicate detail in each of the spreads, holds the eye and makes one want to linger to explore, revisit and enjoy them in their own right. * Books for Keeps *
A lovely bedtime read and a great way for toddlers to learn the names of lots of different animals. * LoveReading4Kids *
