We love Julia Donaldson books here and we’ve recently added a special 10th Anniversary edition of Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book to our collection.
We’d not come across Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book before and we’ve been missing out! This book is pure genius as it mixes a number of classic children’s stories into one rhyming picture book. It’s had both Monkey and I in giggles as we’ve turned the pages to find out how each story weaves into the next. It’s so clever.
Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book is published through Macmillan and retails for £6.99 and we just love it. This edition also features sketches of early Alex Scheffler illustrations for the book. It’s so interesting to see how an original idea develops into the final drawing.
Any Julia Donaldson fan is going to love the quirky tale which is full of family favourites. It’s a gem and we both give it a big thumbs up.
disclaimer: we were sent this book in exchange for an honest review
How have I not heard of this book?! I’m adding it to my ‘must buy’ list, we love Julia Donaldson! x
It really is very clever.
Oh I hadn’t come across this book either – sounds brilliant though, definitely going to have to add it to our collection! 🙂
It is really very clever.
