Under 5s Pre-School/Nursery/Infant
Aided and abetted by the fat King and Queen and their fat children and animals, a little bird eats and eats until he is fat too... this is an amusing story for small children and a visual treat with its soft-coloured drawings and decorative pictures giving the listening child a chance to learn another category - that of fat and thin. Definitely recommended for 3-5 year-olds.
