The Incredible Book Eating Boy
by Oliver Jeffers
Henry discovers that eating books makes him cleverer, so he eats more and more of them, until the facts inside start arriving in the wrong order.
A story about children, funny and wry in tone. We would put it with children of 4–7, and at a reading age of about 6 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.
