Fantastic little library
A brilliant set of books perfect for any little persons bedroom shelf.The books come very well packaged and look perfect for giving as a gift, in a clear plastic sleeve with a little product description on one side.Taken out of the sleeve the books are presented in their own little gruffalo case. The books are a lovely size for big and little hands alike, the pictures are vivid and eye catching, the stories themselves are attention grabbing and really capture the imagination.If you have never read the gruffalo before it really is a must, it's written very well and really engages even the youngest audience with its rhyming rhythmical story.The books and the little case are brilliant quality and really will make a great addition to a little library.

Great stories but small size
These stories are second to none and delightful for children. My 4 month old son loves the rhythm of the rhyming prose and the colourful illustrations. The only downside is that these volumes are all mini sized, which makes it difficult for the child to follow along unless the book can be right up close. I wish I'd gotten a larger format as I think these books would better suit an older child reading them for themselves.

Err it's Julia Donaldson
What's not to love about this collection! it's beautiful, perfect present for a new baby, hard backed books, but they are not big books.

Lovely small set.
These are a really lovely set of books. They are quite small but they are lovely. I thought they were board books but they are not. They are normal hard back books. Would make a nice gift for a toddler/pre-schooler.

Lovely books for babies/children
I love these books, was great to be able to purchase a small version of them to put on the babies shelf in s very small box room. They are good quality and come in a lovely little 3 sided container to keep them all together.

My kids love these books
My kids love these books, every night for bedtime story, one of these books are chosen by them and read - even though some of these have been made into animated mini movies (which they love also), they prefer the books to be read to them, top stuff and great value.
