This book was in a Bookstart pack that i received from the library for my son. He was very excited to see that he had this book and another for us to read. This book is by Julie Lacome. It is a very simple story and is quite shoert in length, it keeps my 21 month old sons concentration from beginning to end. The story starts with a little boy moving through the jungle.

On the second there is a picture of the little boy doing the action mentioned in the paragraph and an ... Read the complete review

Each double page then alternates between the boy on his journey and an animal in the jungle. (Not sure what I mean! Here is the first few pages to give ... Read the complete review

Weve had this book for 18 months now and its still a firm favourite. In fact being lightweight, thin and fun it travels with us everywhere! I was suprised recently to come across it on amazon for £12.34 (rrp £18.99!) as it came free in my daughters bookstart bag. Walking Through The Jungle is a Walker Book written and illustrated by Julie Lacome. She was born in 1961 in Fife, Scotland. She has worked as a freelance illustrator for over 20 years. The bulk of her work, however, has been for children's book publishers. To date Julie has published over 30 books. The book has a repetitive "Walking through the jungle, What do you see? Can you ...
