Join the fun on the farm with this charming early reader series for children aged 5+ written by award-winning author Michael Morpurgo and hilariously illustrated throughout by Shoo Rayner.
With two funny farmyard stories for younger readers in each volume, these short chapter books are a great way to keep busy at bedtime and make those first steps towards independent reading thanks to the big, clear font and lots of illustrations. Children will get to meet all the animals that live in the farmyard behind the tumble-down barn on Mudpuddle Farm… and partake in some of their truly WILD plans! This series has proven to be a real hit with some of our reviewers even mentioning they got through the single stories by just reading ten minutes with their little ones over the course of a few evenings. Win-win!
