Description

Little Miss Muffet is bored of her own nursery rhyme so goes in search of a new nursery rhyme to be in. But before you can say Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, the whole book of rhymes is thrown into chaos! With some of the most favourite rhymes, including The Grand Old Duke of York, Jack and Jill, Hickory, Dickory, Dock, Ding, Dong, Bell, Hey Diddle, Diddle, Sing a song of Sixpence, The Queen of Hearts, and Little Miss Muffet.

Reviews

"... gorgeous pages filled (by Melanie Williamson) with colour, action, incident and pattern. " - THE TIMES


"Melanie Williamson's illustrations are eye-catchingly quirky and superbly original." -- The Observer


'The colourful vibrant pictures perfectly illustrate this funny tale.'--Family Interest Magazine


'It's an amusingly anarchic take on a familiar format, with matchingly madcap illustrations' - Carousel
