Treasure Hunt

Ordinary family life is transformed into a series of small adventures in this wonderful picture book.

Tilly is a curious toddler who loves treasure hunting; her parents obligingly hide small 'treasures' - a banana, her rabbit, even themselves - so that she can enjoy searching for them.

With deft use of rhythm and repetition, the story reaches its charming bedtime conclusion, in which the tables are turned and it's Tilly who hides. The gentle, atmospheric illustrations convey the seasons and domestic routines with energy, humour and loving warmth.
