Handa's Surprise

by Eileen Browne

Ages 3–5 Reading age 5 Picture book Set in outdoors and wild places funnygentle

Handa carries a basket of seven fruits to her friend, not noticing the animals helping themselves along the way, and arrives with a surprise even to her.

A story about children and animals, funny and gentle 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.
