Customer Reviews

Elinor and Violet

The illustrations in this book are wonderful, full of vibrant colour. A cute story any child will relate to as none of them are angels all the time! A winner with my three kids aged 2,4,6. Highly recommended.

a winner with my twin girls (age 3.5)

My twin daughters (fraternal, age 3.5) don't like all books, and often they disagree, one liking something that the other dislikes. They agree on this one: it is a winner. One daughter enjoys the chickens being naughty. The other likes the small morality tale. And they both like explaining all the antics the chickens do, including running the water in the bathtub until it flows down the stairs.
