(The above image was taken from www.gruffalo.com)The website has fun games for children, lists all of Julia's amazing book titles, and even has a page to meet the book characters. I encourage you to browse the website and think about checking out her books from the library to enjoy at home as a family.
I think the reason children love to read Julia Donaldson's books so much is because she writes stories that provide vivid imagery, fun rhyme patterns, and interesting characters. Our favorite character is THE GRUFFALO!
