I like bees... but I don't like honey! I like my imaginary friend... but I don't like it when people say he's not real. You're never too young to know what you like!

There's nothing like a small child to give you an honest answer, and so we asked a group what their likes and dislikes were. Their answers were enlightening, funny, and also profound - so we've gathered them together in a beautifully illustrated package to encourage other young children to express their feelings too.

This charming, delightful and thoroughly entertaining book is perfect for anyone trying to gently broach a conversation about individuality, fears and hopes with their child.

About the Author

This book has been written by dozens of children (along with their parents). Fiona has drawn on anything and everything from an early age and always insisted she would be an artist when she grew up. Fiona moved to London to study for an MA in Painting at the Royal College of Art, and a combination of her obsession with picture books and the arrival of her first son led her down the path of illustration. She hasn't looked back since. I Like Bees! is her first book.
