Cover Story
Our cover this month features Asterix. To mark the 25th anniversary of Asterix in Britain, Hodder &Stoughton are giving the books a brand new look and releasing two omnibus editions. We are most grateful to Hodder & Stoughton for their help in using this illustration by Albert Uderzo.
Mr Little's Noisy Truck
The fourth in the series of Mr Little books, all of which involve terrifying demands on the noise-making talents of a reader-aloud. A boldly printed story about the things carried in and on Mr Little's truck is combined with tiny factual captions labelling the parts of vehicles and machines with a wide range of sound effects. This ought to be an uneasy mix, but small children love all three aspects of the book and it will be popular with any under-5.
