itch of chickenpox, and entertained a two year-old greatly, while managing the difficult task of not making his grandmother want to scream when the word, 'Again!' was spoken at the end of every reading...! I bought this for my 3 year old for her birthday and not only does she love it, but so do her 7 and 8 year old brothers. She loves the funny characters and noises you can make alongside the pictures and my 8 year old appreciates how clever the word play is. A book for all the family. I bought this book because it's by Nick Scarratt. It ok, but it's not one for a bedtime story. It involves lots of lifting flaps, and I find it a bit basic for my 3 year old. He likes it, so don't be put off, it's a great book for interacting with your young child
