Excellent book. Engaging and funny story, long enough without being too long or dragged out. Some different words that keep kids amused. Beautiful illustrations and good quality board book and colours. Highly recommend for 2-6 year olds, each age will find something different to like in this book.

Price can be reduced
Story is good..the look and feel of the book is also good..still I feel that the price is lil hyped. Kids loose interest after it is ready 2-3 times.

Funny and nice story
I bought this for my son. The board book is sturdy and the prints are so clear. The price is also affordable for the quality. Since I have a prime shopping membership the book was delivered the next day itself. It's so fun to read it along with my son. He really enjoyed the images and the whole experience. It's a good thing to introduce books to your little ones instead of letting them watch the mobile phones all day. Planning to buy other books in the series as well!!

Tolles Buch, meine Kinder sind begeistert!
Tolles Buch, meine Kinder sind begeistert! Der Grüffelo ist bei uns zuhause inzwischen ein absoluter Klassiker. Die Reime sind humorvoll, rhythmisch und machen beim Vorlesen richtig Spaß – selbst nach dem zehnten Mal. Die Geschichte ist spannend, aber gleichzeitig nicht zu gruselig, sodass auch jüngere Kinder gut folgen können. Besonders gefällt mir, wie clever die kleine Maus ist und wie sie mit Mut und Fantasie jedes größere Tier austrickst. Die Illustrationen sind liebevoll und detailreich, sodass meine Kinder immer wieder neue Kleinigkeiten entdecken. Auch die Botschaft des Buches – dass man mit Köpfchen oft weiterkommt als mit Stärke – finde ich sehr schön. Insgesamt ein wunderbares Kinderbuch, das wir uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen können.
