over sixty languages. Julia also writes fiction as well as poems,

Axel Scheffler is a star illustrator whose instantly recognisable,
warm and witty illustrations have achieved worldwide acclaim and
numerous awards. In addition to his picture books, Axel is the
illustrator of wonderful novelty and gift books for Macmillan, such

Goose's Nursery Rhymes. He also illustrates the popular Pip and
Posy series. Born in Hamburg, Axel now lives with his family in
London.
A variation on the relationship between the canny mouse and the
gentle but huge and ugly Gruffalo, so deliciously played out in The
Gruffalo, is wittily recreated in this welcome encore.
