It's Too Frightening for Me - Shirley Hughes

My son chose this book from the library, or should I say I chose it for him, I felt that the title was quite apt (as would many parents of young children).

The rhyme takes you through the poem in an upbeat fashion, and there is an illustration for each new item of clothing. There are many themes for this book, new and old, long and short, clothing for various ...
