excellent story and pictures none

Children learn sounds, strong use of phonics, very entertaining The again again factor means you should buy more Seuss to avoid burnout!

A lovely story with a strong moral, very easy for kids (and adults) to read. Perhaps a little too short.

The books will be fun for your child and will help them learn. There isn't any.

Good book, leaves you hooked and gets into the minds of teenagers really well I'd only reccomend to mid-late teenagers

bright colourful illustrations a simple story and a sturdy book none
