(Puffin Books)
978-0140504248, RRP £3.50, Paperback
Under 5s Pre-School/Nursery/Infant

A day in the life of three young children and their parents from waking to sleeping told through a selection of verses, traditional and contemporary, and Jan Ormerod's finely observed watercolour pictures. The theme allows Jan Ormerod full rein for her undoubted talent of capturing the many facets of domestic life and children's relationships: this is the artist at her best. Perfect for sharing with the very young and for slightly older children to read and enjoy for themselves.
