Reviews
Storytelling genius!
Though this book may appear to look like another take on a traditional fairy tale, it's really not as it gives young readers the lead in becoming a great story teller. As you explore the book readers have the opportunity to answer questions and decide details of the story. It makes children think about story structure and the importance of adding great detail to make a story an engaging read.
This book would be absolutely brilliant in a learning setting, not only for connecting to a traditional tale topic but also highlighting the magic of a great storyteller. It also makes for a rather fun group read aloud.
The illustrations are colourful and have a vintage feel reminiscent of books read as a child. An absolutely brilliant, interactive read based around a familiar tale.
This classic story gets a cool twist with this picture book that put your child in control of what happens next, using visual clues to prompt and the chance to add new details.
It's a clever way to engage a reluctant reader and to prompt discussion at storytime, not to mention keeping the book fresh with every reading.
