You Do!

Kes Gray

Buy "You Do! (Daisy Book)" on Amazon

Another book about Daisy, to follow the hugely successful Eat Your Peas. Daisy's Mum is keen to teach her good manners, and the book follows a tight format, repeated until the final twist. Mum tells Daisy she SHOULDN'T do something, and Daisy replies, 'You do.' Each right hand page is a full-page illustration, Sharratt leaving little to the imagination, for yes, Mum is indeed doing all these things! The resolution is just lovely, showing the close, affectionate relationship between Daisy and mum. A thoroughly enjoyable book, one young children will adore to read with mum and early readers will love to read by themselves!
