I bought this book for my daughter who has just started nursery school. I am very pleased with the product. It has plenty of bright colourful photos that she loves, and lots of room on each page to practice writing each letter. The wipe-clean style means that she can use it over and over again.I was going to keep it til Christmas as it would make a lovely present but I couldn't wait to give it to her. Highly recommended.

Since infants are more aware of contrast than color in the beginning, I 'read' this book with my daughter from the time she was four months old through about her first year. Cover to cover, I read the words (title and book description, which almost hypnotically became part of the experience!) and described the pictures, sometimes tracing them with a finger. Our interaction with the small book was cuddly and verbal, as the images served as guides. She had her favorites, and the book is well-worn, chewed in places. It was a daily gentle activity, holding her interest, obviously delighting and stimulating, and paved the way for more and more books. Personally I prefer it to the White on Black, and always give it as part of a gift packet ... Read More:

I read this book in under an hour. It is very easy to follow and tells you expactly what you need to know so that you can teach your child to read. It is straight to the point and just tells you what you need to know.
I have taught my son the phonics sounds using Jolly & did not know what to do next. This book has given me the confidence to go ahead and teach him how to sound out words & eventually read.
It shows you how to use its reading scheme where it has letters & words at the beginning of each book for your child to practise before they read the book.

Simple yet deeply poignant book which follows in Anthony Brownes' ongoing success at producing wonderful books. This was matched by the wonderful illustrations which leaves your imagination running wild.

I introduced my daughter to this book a month ago when she was 9 months old, and it is by far her favourite book. She crawls over to it and lobs other books out of the way to get to it, and then happily sits turning the pages and opening and closing the flaps, she can't get enough of it no matter what time of day it is, although we also read it every night before bed as well. We've had to buy a second copy as I know she's going to tear something soon, but to date it has withstood her vigorous opening/closing/page turning! I would highly recommend it.

I bought this on the strength of its nomination for the Roald Dahl prize. I thought it would be funny and up to date modern childrens fiction. It isn't. I was bored. So were my kids. Sorry, just never 'got' Paddington. Maybe my dislike of Marmite has tarnished my views?

I bought this book for my twin grand daughters when they were four months old. They loved the pictures and quickly picked up the repetition and loved hearing all the animal noises. By six months of age, they wiggled with delight every time they saw me pick up the book. They now try to push the sound buttons for themselves and never tire of having it read to them. Definitely the best book so far that I have bought for them.
