The Scarecrows' Wedding by Julia Donaldson tells the delightful tale of Betty O'Barley and Harry O'Hay, two scarecrows in love who know exactly what they need for their perfect wedding day: a goose-feather dress, two wedding rings, and lots of pink flowers!

As Betty and Harry search the farm to find everything on their list, things don't quite go to plan. Their special day is almost ruined by the wicked scarecrow, Reginald Rake.

This stunning foiled edition makes for a fantastic gift!
