Excellent product but too little text..
Cute little hard bound books. Very good page handprint quality. Bright and big pictures on every page. But the text is too little amd sometimes confusing. Written a bit less artistically. But a great one time read for any child. I bought 3 of them and my 5 year old niece would love to read them.

Never trust a hungry pig!
One of a nice little series of children's Ladybird books. All priced around the ยฃ4.99 mark. They are very slim (pictured next to my HD 10 for scale), and all seem to be between two and three hundred words in length. These are paperbacks, but the card used for the front cover is good quality and thanks to it's shiny surface will survive a wipe with a damp cloth. Each storybook has a small section at the beginning that suggests ways to engage with your child as you read and also a smaller section at the end that helps you test your child's recall. This particular story is entertaining enough. A Big Pancake runs for his life pursued by numerous very hungry people. He does well...evades pursuit...then trusts...a very hungry pig. I'm not quite sure what the moral of this story is. But I'm sure your little one's will be suitably entertained by the fleet footed pancake's bid for freedom...
