My Very Busy Day

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

A classic collection of first experiences for pre-schoolers, illustrated by the best-loved Kate Greenaway medal-winner, Shirley Hughes.

In this beautifully illustrated book for first readers, little ones can find out about Olly and Katie's very busy day, learning new words and improving their vocabulary along the way.

From getting dressed in the morning to heading out for a walk in the park or having a story before bath and bedtime, this simple, joyful book takes the reader through key points in a toddler's day. There are plenty of objects to spot and recognise in Shirley Hughes' reassuring and charming pictures.

Packed with evocative scenes from childhood and first words to spell out on each page, there is so much to see and do in Olly and Katie's gentle pre-school world.
