A Squash and a Squeeze

by Julia Donaldson

Ages 3–5 Reading age 5 Picture book Set in everyday life funnyrhyming

An old lady complains her house is too small. A wise man tells her to bring in a hen, a goat, a pig and a cow, and then to take them all out again.

A story about animals and a grown-up hero, funny and rhyming in tone. We would put it with children of 3–5, and at a reading age of about 5 for reading alone.

Or let them write their own.

Nothing gets a child reading like a story they invented themselves. Your child plans the characters and the plot, and we write, illustrate and print it as a real book with their name on the cover as the author.
