I've studied children's... lit' at a university level and rate this as a great read. In fact, this is a book I buy for every friend / relative who has kids. It is one of the most imaginative, simple and beautifully illustrated books I know of to be published in recent years. It is an engaging book for tots as the illustrations are so richly detailed even those too young to grasp the story / concepts can enjoy exploring the pictures. Meanwhile, for older kids it is a valuable and insightful read as it champions, develops, explores and celebrates the imagination. An all-round great book which can also be used (thanks to its detailed illustrations) as a fun teaching aid.
