    The translation is amazing. There is a part at the end with the dragon that is a bit scary for a small child, otherwise it is nice with a nice meaning.

    This review is about the book: Paperback

    The little one went crazy for it, we read it so many times that he knows it by heart now!! In general, the collection of this specific duo (author, illustrator) is a must!

    This review is about a variation of the product

    Nothing special, the book has no meaning. The little one (18 months) showed no interest at all, even though she likes books with moving parts. It's just a bland book.

    It is one of the few books by this author that I took and the child did not engage at all. I did not like the images at all either; I find them frightening, especially for younger children.

    This review is about the book: Paperback

    Very beautiful fairy tale, hard pages and nice illustrations, rhymes, keeps our interest at 2.5 years old. The only downside I have noticed is the dragon attack scene, it has some inappropriate expressions in my opinion for such young ages so I remove one star. Otherwise, I consider it a very good choice.

    One of our favorite books. I have had it for almost 1 year and it doesn't get boring (now we are almost 4). It has rhymes that she has learned and whenever we read it, she completes the sentences. We also have other books by the same author such as "The Gruffalo," "Fit or Not Fit," "The Sleepy Cow," "The Little Rabbit Wants to Sleep," "Zog and the Flying Doctors," "Moo... Goes to the Farm," and "The Stick Man."

    This review is about the book: Paperback

    Nice book kept the child's interest quite well at the age of 2. However, the part with the dragon and the witch scares the child. Nice illustrations and nice sturdy pages that don't tear easily.

    -Teaches about friendship
    -Has a rhyming structure, like a little song
    -The colors are a bit dark
    -A little scary when it talks about the dragon

    One of our favorites! Amazing rhymes, easy for younger children (we started reading it from 3.5 years old), entertaining (laughs a lot every time) as it is read in different ways and keeps the interest, the illustrations are fantastic. One of our best purchases!

    My favorite children's book. Although it is a bit dark in terms of illustration, the fact that the entire text is in rhyming form makes it very entertaining. We read it and essentially sing it. Fantastic, with content for discussion and lots of imagination! I highly recommend it! Among the books by SCHEFFLER AXEL, who is excellent, I particularly stand out this one, the Gruffalo and Stick Man.
