1,224 books1,899 followersGrowing up
I grew up in a tall Victorian London house with my parents, grandmother, aunt, uncle, younger sister Mary and cat Geoffrey (who was really a prince in disguise. Mary and I would argue about which of us would marry him).
Mary and I were always creating imaginary characters and mimicking real ones, and I used to write shows and choreograph ballets for us. A wind-up gramophone wafted out Chopin waltzes.
I studied Drama and French at Bristol University, where I met Malcolm, a guitar-playing medic to whom I’m now married.
Busking and books
Before Malcolm and I had our three sons we used to go busking together and I would write special songs for each country; the best one was in Italian about pasta.
The busking led to a career in singing and songwriting, mainly for children’s television. I became an expert at writing to order on such subjects as guinea pigs, window-cleaning and horrible smells. “We want a song about throwing crumpled-up wrapping paper into the bin” was a typical request from the BBC.
I also continued to write “grown-up” songs and perform them in folk clubs and on the radio, and have recently released two CDs of these songs.
One of my television songs, A SQUASH AND A SQUEEZE, was made into a book in 1993, with illustrations by the wonderful Axel Scheffler. It was great to hold the book in my hand without it vanishing in the air the way the songs did. This prompted me to unearth some plays I’d written for a school reading group, and since then I’ve had 20 plays published. Most children love acting and it’s a tremendous way to improve their reading.
My real breakthrough was THE GRUFFALO, again illustrated by Axel. We work separately - he’s in London and I’m in Glasgow - but he sends me letters with lovely funny pictures on the envelopes.
I really enjoy writing verse, even though it can be fiendishly difficult. I used to memorise poems as a child and it means a lot to me when parents tell me their child can recite one of my books.
Funnily enough, I find it harder to write not in verse, though I feel I am now getting the hang of it! My novel THE GIANTS AND THE JONESES is going to be made into a film by the same team who made the Harry Potter movies, and I have written three books of stories about the anarchic PRINCESS MIRROR-BELLE who appears from the mirror and disrupts the life of an otherwise ordinary eight-year-old. I have just finished writing a novel for teenagers.
When I’m not writing I am often performing, at book festivals and in theatres. I really enjoy getting the children in the audience to help me act out the stories and sing the songs. When Malcolm can take time off from the hospital he and his guitar come too. and it feels as if we’ve come full circle - back to busking.

It's rare to see a children's picture book that receives a sequel with continuity. In fact, I would go so far as to say that if one hasn't read The Gruffalo, one would not get anywhere near as much out of this one. So, congratulations to the creators as that is fairly unique. I also give points as (much like the other two books I've read by them) the rhymes are fun and the art is charming.
Sadly I'm not much of a fan of this one. Don't get me wrong, it's cute, but it's so much of a rehash of the first book (just with a baby Gruffalo) that it feels repetitive and slightly unnecessary.
Now my daughter, who is a far more lenient critic than myself, did enjoy it and she loved seeing the child Gruffalo as the main character. In fact she liked the little Gruffalo so much that instead of cheering for the mouse's cleverness as she did in the first book, she kept hoping the little one would see through his lies. So yes, while she liked it, it does not reach the level of the first even for her. 3/5 stars

This is another great book of the series my children absolutely loved.
There is the little gruffalo this time who discovers how scary the little mouse is.
Her father warned her about the Big Bad Mouse, but she still went to the forest to see how the mouse looks like. Obviously the mouse was neither big, nor bad. But still the mouse made the Gruffalo's child think that he is dangerous. Clever Little Mouse!
Thus, the Gruffalo's child runs back to her parent for reassurance and a big hug.
A book which will be read again and again like the first one.

A highly enjoyable sequel to the massively popular The Gruffalo.
The Gruffalo is trying to explain to his child why she shouldn't enter into the deep dark works, unfortunately he can't quite recall what the big bad mouse looked like from his previous adventure.
This inevitably peaked this childs curiousity as she seaks out the awful beast.
Like all Donaldson/Scheffler picture books the rhyming is simple and fun whilst the accompanying illustrations help bring the story to life.
It doesn't quite match the brilliance of the first, but still a worthy successor to enjoy over and over again.

‘The Gruffalo’s Child’ by author Julia Donaldson and illustrator Axel Scheffler was a good enough sequel to the amazing ‘The Gruffalo’ but could have had a better ending. The illustrations were better and more evocatively done by Axel Scheffler this time around, but the double whammy of the mouse was lacking in force in this sequel.
I don’t know about most people, but I usually never follow a series in order. However, since I had heard only good things about ‘The Gruffalo’ series, I decided to finish the series off in one shot as the books were both available at my local lending library. I loved the first book in the series, it was certainly a winner, but I found this sequel to be weak, done in a hurry, and a bit outlandish.
Nevertheless, I loved the fact that inclusion was maintained in many subtle ways in the book and the book was a comfy and quick read during the last leg of my long day before I hit the sack. Those readers who are fans of the first book in the series can read the second book for sentimental reasons, but a younger would not be missing out on much if they gave this title a miss.
It was welcoming to meet up with the snake, the owl, and the fox again and younger readers, who loved those characters in the previous book, will certainly be happy to see them again in a winter setting done beautifully by Axel Scheffler. I found the portion about how the mouse teaches the Gruffalo’s child a lesson to be particularly outlandish, and it did not make a mark on me at all. I was hoping for something better from the author, but I guess most writers don’t usually fair well with their sequels. Well, everyone except J.K. Rowling! She has recently found an ardent fan in my 76-year-old mother (Mama)!
‘The Gruffalo’s Child’ therefore only gets 4 stars from me. It would have been a 3.5, but I rounded this one off to a 4-star review.

Children have always enjoyed tales of dark, scary creatures and the Gruffalo’s child is no exception. The Gruffalo tells his daughter she should never go out in the deep dark wood or the Big Bad Mouse will be after her.
The Gruffalo’s child decides to find this Big Bad Mouse. She isn’t scared. The story follows her through the snow swept woods as she comes across different animals; a snake, an owl, and follows tracks to see who they lead to. Will she find the Big Bad Mouse?
The Gruffalo’s Child is told in rhyming verse and the use of voice variation gives depth to the story. Scheffler’s illustrations give the Gruffalo’s child a human like dimension as she carries her favourite toy, a doll made of sticks.
The Gruffalo's Child 15th Anniversary Edition features:
- A wrap-around snowy wood play scene and press-out characters for an interactive reading experience.
- Plus additional book content including letters from author Julia Donaldson and illustrator Axel Scheffler.
- The Gruffalo's Child Song.
- A Gruffalo's Child quiz.
- And tips for putting on a Gruffalo's Child show!
We all enjoyed playing with the wrap around scene, acting out the story and also making up our own stories with the animals.
With this 15th Anniversary Edition you can be assured the Gruffalo will delight yet another generation of children.

In the sequel to The Gruffalo, in her The Gruffalo's Child, author Julia Donaldson again presents a fun and engaging poetical text (equally magically graced by Axel Scheffler's accompanying artwork, pictures that are imaginative, expressive and indeed totally mirror and compliment Julia Donaldson's verses, art that is rich, expressive, colourful and beautifully representative and evocative of the forest at night, and something that of course also and simultaneously is occurring with and in Julia Donaldson's featured poetry). And therefore, The Gruffalo's Child absolutely and utterly represents to and for me a sweetly magical and enchantingly entertaining combination of the author's written words, of Julia Donaldson's expressive verses and Axel Scheffler's equally delightful accompanying illustrations.
Now with regard to the actual plot of The Gruffalo's Child, while I do love how the little Gruffalo decides go exploring on her own (and indeed, I also very much do appreciate that Julia Donaldson depicts the Gruffalo child as being a she and not a he), part of me also tends to feel both a bit annoyed at and potentially scared for her (as the parent Gruffalo does in my opinion have some rather good and legitimate reasons as to why the Gruffalo child should not be going into the woods alone at night). For even if the so-called big bad mouse only ends up appearing as possibly terrifying because of shadows and moonlight, actually, some of the other animals that the Gruffalo Child meets and has contact with during her romp in the nighttime woods, such as for example the fox and the snake, could in fact prove a true and legitimate threat. And finally, yes, I did and do smile with appreciation and entertainment at how the diminutive mouse manages to scare the little Gruffalo with his or her shadow play and how the mouse with and by this in my opinion also demonstrates to the Gruffalo child that the safest place for her at night (that the safest place for any small child in fact) is at home (safely in the parents' care and arms).

Description: The Gruffalo said that no gruffalo should ever set foot in the deep dark wood. But one wild and windy night, the Gruffalo's child ignores her father's warning and tiptoes out into the snow. After all, the Big Bad Mouse doesn't really exist - does he?

The Gruffalo's Child is the sequal to the much loved story The Gruffalo. The Gruffalo tells his daughter of the big bad mouse, and whilst the Gruffalo is sleeping she sneaks out of the cave to find him. The story has the orginal characters, the fox, owl, snake and of course the mouse. Once again the mouse comes out on top with his fast thinking and trickery.
I actually prefer this story to the original as I feel that young children can realate to the Gruffalo's daughter. I read The Gruffalo to the Nursery class yesterday and only a handful could tell me why the snake, fox, and owl are scared of the mouse because he was walking with the Gruffalo. However, all but two could tell me that the Big Bad Mouse was only a shadow, and that the Gruffalo's Child shouldn't be scared.
This story is easy to read and children can follow the rhyming patterns and can finish the sentence I am reading to them. I also asked the children to move and make the sounds of the howling wind as I was reading parts of the story today and they thoroughly enjoyed playing a part during story time.

I like this one even more than the original :-)
But why?
The illustration and the rhymes are equally good between the two.
The Gruffalo's Child is self-depreciating - the other animals are teasing the child and at the end the Mouse plays a trick on her, so she runs home to have a cuddle with her Dad. This feels a bit more like reality...
The original Gruffalo is great, but it is also a bit... smug. The Mouse easily pulls the wool over all the other animals' eyes, and then does the same to the Gruffalo too. Yes, he's a very clever little mouse, but a little humility would be nice...
After this I read: The Smartest Giant in Town

O que pode acontecer quando uma criança curiosa não faz o que os pais lhe dizem?!
Pois bem, este poderia ser o subtítulo deste livro "A filha do Grufalão". Encontramos o Grufalão e a sua curiosa filha na gruta que lhes serve de casa, com a pequena a querer explorar a floresta em redor e o pai a aconselhar exactamente o contrário por causa do rato gigante que lá existe. Como boa criança que é, assim que o pai adormece, lá vai a filha do Grufalão destemida pela noite escura, explorando todos os recantos em busca do tal rato de que todos falam mas que ninguém parece ter visto ainda.
É claro que quem procura, sempre encontra e é isso exactamente que acontece à filha do Grufalão. Sem se dar bem conta, acaba por encontrar o tal rato gigante e apanha o susto da sua vida. Mas será que esse rato era mesmo assim tão gigante e assustador?! Para descobrirem, vão ter mesmo que ler o livro!
Mais uma vez, Julia Donaldson não desilude com as suas histórias do Grufalão e aqui temos uma histórica de musicalidade poética e de ilustrações bem bonitas. Impossível não colocar este livro na lista dos preferidos cá de casa!

This is a great follow up to the book The Gruffalo. The Gruffalo's Child follows the adventure of the Gruffalo's daughter as she goes in search for the Big Bad Mouse. I read this book during story time to year 1 children and they enjoyed the continuity of the characters and joined in with the repeated sentences - even those who were not previously familiar with the story. They also enjoyed getting into character for each creature. This is a great story for children as they follow the Gruffalo's child on her adventure as she creeps off on a cold winter's night to find the Big Bad Mouse. The final scene of the child cuddled up to her father is one that children loved, as they were able to recognise the pictures on the cave's wall of the animals that have featured in the book. The author uses rhyme to produce a flowing story that allows children to guess the words. The book is also great for key stage 1 and 2 for introducing rhyme and to show how the use of adjectives can make the story more enjoyable to read.

I read the Gruffalo's Child to a family member's daughter at bed time and she loves the book so much that she would be saying the story while I was reading it and want to flip back to her favourite part. It is a cautionary tale about the Gruffalo's Child who gets bored one night and wants to go and find the 'big scary mouse'. he does not believe his father's story that the mouse is the most fearsome creature in the woods (which he is not) and ends up meeting different animals along the way. The pictures compliment the story beautifully, highlighting physical aspects of certain animals and adding a focal point for children who cannot yet read. The rhyming verses help children keep track of the story and, like the little girl I read to, they end up knowing which words come next as the sentence before rhymes.
A wonderful book which encourages poetry into a child's mind and enhances vocabulary beautifully.

Another great book from Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. If you haven't read The Gruffalo, it's probably best to do that first. Although the story stands on its own, it's more meaningful if you know what the mouse got up to in the first one.
The Gruffalo tells his child not to go into the woods because he might run into the Big Bad Mouse. However, the Gruffalo's child is bored and sneaks out while Dad is sleeping. Along the way, he meets different animals who point him in the right direction. Will the mouse be able to outwit the Gruffalo's child just as he did the Dad?
A fun story told in rhyme, with fun illustrations.

The Gruffalo warns his child to stay out of the wood, which is haunted by the Big Bad Mouse, a terribly strong, fiery-eyed, fearsome creature. When the Gruffalo’s child disobeys and enters the wood anyway to find the Big Bad Mouse, he’s in for quite an adventure. There’s a reason that this picture book by author Julia Donaldson and her longtime illustrator, Axel Scheffler, has become a classic. Five big mousey stars!

„Детето на Грузулака“ пък с твърдите си корици е прекрасен подарък. Това е книга, която с поетичната си стъпка ме спечели завинаги, и определено ще потърся първата книга за Грузулака и малкото мишле. И в една снежна нощ последвах детето на Грузулака, което бе решило, че не може да чака и се отправя към голямата страшна мишка. Забавна история, за страховете, а игривият текст в прекрасния превод на Манол Пейков, заедно със снежните рисунки Аксел Шефлър доставят истинско удоволствие от досега с изданието.
