Author:Kenneth Grahame,John Burningham
The most popular children's book ever written, lovingly illustrated by John Burningham.
Kenneth Grahame began to tell the tale of the river bank on the night of his son's fourth birthday, but what started out as a short bedtime story soon grew into one of the most enjoyable series of adventures ever to be told in children's literature.
The entertaining exploits of the book's four intrepid heroes - Mole, Water Rat, Badger and the incorrigible Toad - have captured the imagination of generations of children.
This beautiful edition is illustrated by renowned picture book artist John Burningham, whose wonderfully evocative line drawings marry perfectly with Graham's vivid text. There are twelve glorious full-colour scenes, full of detail, to enjoy over again and again.
A charming celebration of unconditional love, pooch style.
—— Jill R Bennett , jillrbennett.wordpress.comClark’s rambunctious dog, Plum, whose exploits have been chronicled on the author’s blog as well as in a recent adult title, Plumdog, makes her picture book debut. Working in watercolor and pencil, Clark exuberantly captures Plum’s zest for life, whether it’s playing with the kids next door or causing trouble (like diving into the pond at the park) that tests his family’s patience. But unconditional love is unconditional love, and even at the height of Plum’s post-mischief worry—“Would they ever love me again?” she wonders, stuck in time-out—the answer to that question is never in doubt. Ages 3–5.
—— Publisher's WeeklyDog lovers will especially “LOVE” this, and readers who can’t get enough can follow the real-life Plum in the author’s blog.
—— Kirkus ReviewsI think it is a perfect book for sharing and helping younger children understand that even if they do sometimes get up to mischief and get told off they will still be loved. I’m not sure that it is possible for any child (or adult) not to totally fall in love with Plumdog by the end of the story.
—— Book Lover Jo WordpressWording is perfect for a 3-6 year old and illustrations are engaging and relay the exuberant and love-worthy Plum.
—— mattiedog.comIf Love Is My Favorite Thing isn’t the most fitting title for a book about the devotion of domesticated dogs, I don’t know what is.
—— Julia Danielson , Kirkus ReviewsClark exuberantly captures Plum’s zest for life, whether it’s playing with the kids next door or causing trouble
—— Publishers WeeklyAll ends well for Plummie in a picture book that’s just right for a day that celebrates love, even if you’re in the doghouse.
