smiles galore

This book will give you the warm fuzzies over and over again. It's absolutely tender and delightful. A joy and pleasure to share with my children over and over again.

Charming and lovely in a throroughly British sort of way!

I love the Willow books. They are so charming, and sweet, and gentle. The watercolour illustrations too are soft and muted and downright adorable. These books are perfect for a soothing, quiet story before bedtime--I would recommmend them for 3 to 6 year olds.If you like stories with a delicious British flavour--like Wind in the Willows or The Hobbit--then you will definitely love these delightful picture books, in which Willow lives "on Paradise Farm, at the bottom of Appleby Downs".
