So pleased to see this book on the list recommended by Julia Donaldson. My children loved this book when they were younger (now 17 and 21). I "taped" myself reading it so that they could listen to it when I couldnt be there at bedtime and they heard it over and over again. Its a great story of the selfless love that can exist within families. The illustrations are beautiful and Shirley Hughes is an incredible story teller. Her stories are timeless and this will be enjoyed by all children for many more years to come.
