Reviews
This charming picture book has reimagined the classic nursery rhyme with brilliant results * BookTrust's Great Books Guide 2021 *
I HAD to get my hands on this. My daughter is 18 months old and she absolutely loves Car, Car, Truck, Jeep, so I couldn't wait to read this one to her. She loves it. It's a brilliant and funny reimagining of a classic nursery rhyme ... The rhyme is easy to follow and funny, and as always the illustrations are great. Big, bright and bold colours and drawings that compliment the book well. I loved it and she loved it * NetGalley reviewer *
Just like Car, Car, Truck, Jeep this book is a lot of fun to read aloud! My children joined in from the second line of each page and loved laughing at all the crazy scenarios ... Sharratt's artwork is bright and bold with his signature style. The story has a gentle, sleepy feel to the last two pages, making this story perfect for before bed, or as a pre nap-time read at home or nursery. We loved this story and would definitely recommend it * NetGalley reviewer *

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
