A charming story about bravery with a hilarious lift the flap surprise from a Kate Greenaway Medal-shortlisted illustrator, who has been described by The Washington Post as "the thinking tot's Eric Carle".
Horacek the master illustrator from Prague whose use of bold colour and cut-outs makes him a cut above Toddlers will scratch their heads furiously trying to work out the moral of the fourth story in this excellent series. Their parents will just enjoy lifting the flaps * The Times, Childrens Book of the Week *
This is a gorgeous picture book with a simple message about keeping safe. The images in the woods are evocative and Little Mouse's energy and enthusiasm shine out - but is she being a little careless about her wellbeing Lots to discuss with younger children. * School Zone *
