The Gruffalo

Product Information

From Julia Donaldson, the bestselling author of The Gruffalo, comes Princess Mirror-Belle and the Magic Shoes, the exciting adventures of a princess with a difference.

I love to do the different voices and my daughter can recite a lot of the book having been listening to it for over a year. We have read the story to her a number of times but she still brings it back to us time after time to re read. The production was animated at Studio Soi in Germany [59] and produced through Magic Light Pictures.Each predator is terrified by the sight of the Gruffalo and escapes to its home, but the Gruffalo believes that they are actually scared of the mouse. When my son wants to it read he takes it to one of us and climbs next to us so he can turn the pages,(usually faster than we can read). Still only 9 months old, he can clearly recognise the rhymes in the story and he already sits for the entire book. Shared this book with some nursery children, when I did my ta course and they all loved it, even though some had seen it on the tv it was great to change my voice to the different characters - a fun book. You can also share them out in party bags so all your little one's friends can delve into these popular stories.
