Summary
This is the story of Lil and Harry the Hog who lived over the hill and a foggy March day, round about three, when Lil had invited Harry for tea.
My Review
My oh my!!
This is such a sweet story, that combined with the illustrations result in a spectacular book set in a foggy forest.
Picture books need to reach two age groups – adults and children. Grown ups read them again and again, while the younger listen and demand to have it read. The rhyming and repetition add to the momentum and lead to a happy ending.
Another glorious picture book.
Many thanks to Faber & Faber for the review book.
