What to expect
A fabulously funny take on a classic story from two giants of children’s books!

A funny story full of surprises!
From Michael Rosen, the highly regarded author of We’re Going on a Bear Hunt, comes this wonderful new take on the famous nursery tale, brilliantly brought to life by David Melling, the creator of Hugless Douglas.
