I found this book while shopping for Christmas presents for my great granddaughters, Arabella who is three and Siobhan who is one. The little girl on the front looks so much like Arabella and, though I know Olly is Katie’s little brother, he looks like Siobhan. I was so happy with it when it came. The illustrations are so beautifully done and I love the mix of poems, stories, cooking and crafts. I can see that I will have to have more Shirley Hughes books for future birthdays and Christmases. I wish I had known of these books sooner.

I find the recipes to be rather outdated. Same for the proposed activities. We live in the Pinterest era so plenty of more appealing ideas there.
