Fabulously detailed pictures for both parent and child! - By: K. LOves books, 25 Oct 2007
We love this book! My firstborn (3 1/2 yrs) always loves going through the pictorial table of contents to choose stories before bedtime. It's great that there are no words except for a little one-liner at the end of each story because you can make the story as short or as long as you want, or just talk about the pictures, or ask your child to tell you the story!

There's plenty of detailin the pictures so you often see something new each time. The caricature-like drawings mean that the exaggerated expressions are easy for a toddler to interpret & give rise to some discussions about emotions. And, there's humour to boot. One of my favourite bits is the sequence where Jonah is about to be swallowed by the big fish & he tries (in vain) to prevent this from happening.
