The Gruffalo - a quick review -

For a book that has sold 10.5 million copies worldwide (wikipedia) ..there is nothing much left to say..it was brilliant..A simple children story book that made into a worldwide phenomenon and i just knew about it after 23 years of living in this world and was introduced to me by a lecturer. how sad is that?

Back to the review, the mouse that walk through woods as a cunning mouse find himself in the danger of being eaten, create another false creature that no animal in the woods dare to see. one thing lead to another and there you go..the gruffalo emerged in front of his eyes..again with his brilliant mind..cunning as he ever be..escaped the danger..

It is written in a way that a young child aged 3 to 7 will love to read. it is rhyming,repetitive verse and colourful to the eyes. Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler made millions of children in this world happy and everyone else who just found out the existing of this story.. =)
