May Belle's songs make the book!! Just ask my grandson ...

My grandson fell in love with this duo in May Belle and the Ogre. In fact, he borrowed it from our local library 2 times, for 6 weeks, because he enjoyed it so much!! Being a doting Grandma I searched for another Ogre book. The pictures and story come together in such a delightful way that adults and children can enjoy all 3 stories in each book. In this volume everything becomes food to the Ogre. He eats May Belle's tulips, so she teaches him how to cook a stew. In the second story he eats her note, so she teaches him to read. And so it goes. Ogre is not a scary Ogre at all. He is delightfully funny. The songs truly make the story. My grandson especiallly loves to hear his mama sing them. I do hope that Bethany Roberts will write many more May Belle and Ogre books.
