tonies: Julia Donaldson - The Gruffalo Tonie Audio Character

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

What's a Gruffalo? We bet your little listeners know!

Julia Donaldson’s story of a brave mouse, a deep dark wood, and everybody's favourite knobbly-kneed monster is a firm favourite – and with the Toniebox, The Gruffalo fans can bring the deep, dark wood to roaring life, right in the middle of their bedroom. Or their living room. Or the car. Wherever they like, really.

All they need to do is to pop this fearsome (but not really) Gruffalo Tonie on top of their Toniebox and soon they’ll be taking a familiar nighttime stroll through the woods. Actress Imelda Staunton reads this Toniebox story, but we reckon there are some words you might know already.

All together: ‘A mouse took a stroll through the deep, dark wood…’

Good to know:

  • Tonies only work when paired with a Toniebox.
  • Running time: 17 minutes
  • Suitable for: 4+

This Tonie Teaches:

  • Perseverance
  • Curiosity
  • Imagination
  • Problem solving

List of titles:

  1. STORY - The Gruffalo
  2. SONG - The Gruffalo

WARNING: Not suitable for children under 36 months. Small parts. Choking hazard.
All Tonies contain magnets. Please keep them away from medical components such as defibrillators, shunts, or pacemakers as well as from products sensitive to magnets such as magnetic data carriers, credit cards, or computers.
