1 post | 1 read
An ideal picture book for children with separation anxiety from the award-winning Tracey Corderoy (Hubble Bubble, Granny Trouble, The Grunt and The Grouch) and illustrator Alison Edgson (Yuck! That's Not a Monster! - Winner of the Red House Children's Book Award 2011).

It’s Arthur’s first day apart from his mummy and he really misses her. Even his fantastic dragon costume and favourite dragon toy don’t cheer him up. “Raaargh!” he roars grumpily. But luckily Granny knows just what to do…

The message of this book is probably a little young for my school aged daughter - Arthur the mouse doesn't want to be apart from his mother but Granny comes to the rescue & assuages his anxieties with love & fun.

But Alison Edgson's illustrations are just so stinking CUTE! Arthur is just so expressive, demonstrating all the emotions familiar to any parent of a toddler - anxiety, defiance, frustration and joy. He's just so sweet!
