## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Story book
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 14 June 2026*

Great book, fast delivery.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ family favorite that teaches a great lesson!
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 16 February 2026*

We’ve read this dozens of times with our son, and it never gets old. The quality of the Julia Donaldson rhyme and Axel Scheffler’s illustrations is top-tier. It’s a very fun way to teach kids about gratitude—the 'wise old man' has a brilliant, albeit chaotic, plan to show the old lady that her house isn't so small after all! It’s a high-quality paperback that’s sturdy enough for little hands. A relatively cheap addition to any bookshelf that provides endless entertainment.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So much Squashed & Squeezed in this lovely story
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 2 June 2026*

Absolutely children’s classic not to missed out of any child’s Julia Donaldson library
