When you open a parcel and find another parcel that is even more exciting because, just look at those names on the wrapping, you know you’re in for a treat! And so it is.

This new instant classic [yep, I’m calling it already] will be a huge hit with your little Smalls from toddler up to lower primary. They will delight in the pattern and the nonsense and the accompanying ideas for activities will give you plenty of follow-up to maximise the fun.

I went to the shop to get me a carrot.

Oh dear, they gave me…. a parrot!

Your kiddos will be rolling about with the absurdity of each new mistaken shopping item, but they will also love to guess the nonsense rhyme that is coming up.

Of course we know that this pairing of author and illustrator is just magical. And you can let all your parents who are getting fed up with the repeat requests for We’re Going on a Bear Hunt, that there’s a new one to put on a loop for bedtime reading.

I love it to bits! Don’t miss out – get it in your shopping cart or on your orders list. And what a splendid Xmas present it would make for a little human in your own circle. It’s definitely a 5 🦜🐈🐐🐍🐻 and one more, so now you will have to read it!
