The Gruffalo Board book – Illustrated, 27 Jan. 2005

Brilliant book. My Grandson loves it & he is not 3 till July.

This is for my grandson who is 3 soon. Lovely board book and easy for him to hold. I'm do pleased with it

Children loved this as its colourful, and rhythmic and the children really enjoyed the story and start to remember phrases in the book

The media could not be loaded. This is obviously one of, if not the most popular children’s story of Julia Donaldson’s. I think this was the only title of hers that I had heard of before having our daughter, and one of the first that we bought after her arrival. It’s clear why this one is so popular. Everything about it just works so well, from the length, to the rhyming structure, to the illustrations and the wittiness of the story, which verges on feeling very Aesops Fable-esque. Me and my daughter love the detailed drawings, set in a wonderful rich woodland, and although at first she was scared of the gruffalo, she has since become familiar with his bumbly, not-so-bad monster appearance.She has also grown up having this story read to her, and all the characters are now familiar friends (which I should point out she enjoyed seeing in the sequel).Sometimes things are popular without good reason, but trust me, this one deserves to be, and really does belong on every child’s bookshelf!!On a final note, like all the board book verions of her stories, this one is very sturdy, feels weighty, with very little damage to show for how much use it’s seen.

Lovely story book for young childrenGood quality and pictures and text clear

Great book, my baby loves it and will want it read over and over again

Arrived on time and in good condition. Nice book with clear drawings and a nice text

My grandson aged 8, will read this to his younger brother aged nearly 3, who has autism, and they will both enjoy it, so happy 😌😁 faces
