Description

Meet Molly the hare, Olive the owl and Dexter the fox, stars of a delightful new series for toddlers from Kate Greenaway Medal-winning artist Catherine Rayner.
Molly the hare loves hide-and-seek. You two hide, she tells Olive the owl and Dexter the fox, and then she begins to count: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 ready or not here I come. But when she opens her eyes, Molly finds the pair straight away! Soon Molly announces Olive and Dexter have to hide properly. Now she has the opposite problem: her friends have hidden too well... Wherever can they be This is the first in Catherine Rayner's adorable new picture-book series delivering the charm of the 100 Acre Wood in an irresistible package for toddlers.

Catherine Rayner has a marvellous gift for capturing the souls of animals in a few, rich washes of colour. Daily Telegraph

Reviews

Sweet celebration of friendship. * the Bookseller *
As always Catherine Rayners watercolour illustrations are superb: her three characters are winsome winners that capture the essence of the animals portrayed and the flora a delicately detailed delight. I look forward to further stories in this new series by the wonderful watercolourist; so too, I have no doubt, will young listeners. * Red Reading Hub *
