Who Lives Here?

Who is not delighted, excited, to discover a new publication of a Julia Donaldson picture book? A little boy is thrilled to be invited to play at his friend’s house. But there is a problem. On South Street all the houses stand in a row, but which is his friend’s house? In Julia’s characteristic rhyming style, the tale begins, as we lift each flap to discover the amazing people living in each surprising house. Whilst a cook inhabits the first house, next door is a knight in shining armour. Each page uses a different kind of flap, the thick card making the book accessible for the youngest of children. Once the friends are united, they play knights and pirates, sharing adventures. The play date is a success, and this book will certainly be a success, one which is requested time and again. This author/ illustrator partnership has again hit on a favourite.
