About This Book
A clever mouse takes a walk through the deep dark wood and outsmarts a series of hungry predators - a fox, an owl, and a snake - by inventing a fearsome creature called the Gruffalo. But what happens when the made-up monster turns out to be real? Julia Donaldson's beloved rhyming tale is a masterclass in wit and bravery.
Why We Love This
The rhymes are so catchy kids memorize them after just a few reads, and Axel Scheffler's Gruffalo is the perfect mix of scary and lovable.
