The Gruffalo - Children's Book Review

Have you ever heard of a Gruffalo??

Well neither had we until my son received this wonderful gift for Christmas just past. Now I have to say he adores this book, and is learning very quickly to read it himself! We were very excited today when he received his Easter present from Aunti Kiki. It was the next book, The Gruffalo Child!

"A Mouse took a stroll
through the deep dark wood.
A Fox saw the mouse
and the mouse looked good."

The Gruffalo is a wonderful book written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Scheffler. With a great story line, and wonderful illustrations, this book is sure to peek the interest of most little ones. A great book for story time...not too short, not too long and the words roll off your tounge with ease.

Not only is there a whole line of wonderful children's books, but there is also a great website for your little Gruffalo fans to play and learn at. Check out Gruffalo.com for some great games and activites, and more details on how your family can be enjoyng this wonderful read as much as mine does.
