The Hairy Book

Babette Cole
(Methuen Publishing Ltd)
978-0416957600, RRP £1.95, Paperback
5-8 Infant/Junior
Buy "The Hairy Book (A Magnet book)" on Amazon

A nonsense verse celebration of hair, hairlariously illustrated. There are hairy knees, hairy frogs, hairy vests, hairy food, a hairy fairy and much more besides. In my experience this easy-to-read romp of a book has been relished by countless readers since it first appeared in hardback and this paperback should now disappear into a good many hairy pockets: Beware!
