Sophie and Jack

Judy Taylor
Illustrated by Susan Gantner
(Corgi)
978-0552523073, RRP £1.50, Paperback
Under 5s Pre-School/Nursery/Infant
Buy "Sophie and Jack (Picture Corgi)" on Amazon

Just perfect for beginning readers is this enchantingly simple story wherein the hippos picnic and play hide-and-seek. Susan Ganter's summery waterside scenes, especially those of Sophie and Jack ridiculously 'unhidden' in their hiding places, till the final turn anyway, are utterly beguiling.
