Book Review: A Bit Lost

A bit lost by Chris Haughton ... "Don't worry, little friend. I'll find your mummy. What does she look like?"... a friendly but no so smart squirrel offers baby owl some help to find Mummy owl after he had fallen out of the nest... every page comes with a funny surprise. It is a short but happy and funny story and I noticed my boys were both responding to each page with different comments. And if that happens I know we all are going to love the book for a long time. So much room for imagination in this book.

The illustrations and colors are so beautiful that I wish I could hang them as prints. Most important Lode LOVED it, he was laughing and touched by the little owl. This is book is an absolute winner in every way... young and old will be happy reading and looking.  >>> Read More

Heel mooi boekje
Ik heb het gekocht voor de 4de verjaardag van mijn dochter om hte in school af te geven als kadootje
Ik had er even zelf in gekeken en twijfelde of ik het niet zelf ging bijhouden
toch een beetje spijt....
