Willy And Hugh

Willy hasn't got any friends and no-one ever lets him join in with their games.

He is lonely . . . until the day he bumps into Hugh Jape in the park.

Willy and Hugh are very different but they make a great team!

Reviews

Anthony Browne is one of the most talented artists working in children's books today and it's always exciting to see a new book by him. It is even more exciting when the book in question is about the marvellous character Willy

Anthony Browne's stunning and masterful drawings, combined with a bizarre sense of humour, make Willy's exploits increasingly compulsive

—— Primary Times

Mister Magnolia is deservedly a classic, where the ryhming text combines with the illustrations to create a really racous adventure

—— Helen Bromley , Early Years Educator

A book that is literally about how great books are

—— Scottish Sunday Herald

A quirky and unusual story brought to the young reader as two unlikely friends find themselves in a unique situation that allows them to grow together. It’s unusual, it has some great illustrations and demonstrates that whilst people may be different, similarities can allow everyone to become friends. Add to this some bright colours, great use of prose which when backed with the authors unique storytelling style really brings this title together on so many levels.

A truly wonderful read and one that I really can’t wait to share with my nephews.
