Immerse in the magical world of The Gruffalo with this interactive storybook. Press buttons to hear characters come alive - from mouse's squeak to Gruffalo's growl. Review: 🌟A classic tale that delights every time! - As a parent and avid reader of children’s books, I’m always looking for stories that are engaging, beautifully illustrated, and enjoyable for both kids and adults. The Gruffalo absolutely delivers on all fronts—it’s a masterpiece of rhythm, rhyme, and imagination that has quickly become a favorite in our household. From the very first page, Julia Donaldson’s lyrical writing pulls children into the story. The rhyming verses are clever and fun, making it a joy to read aloud. Axel Scheffler’s vibrant, detailed illustrations bring the deep dark wood and its colorful characters to life, offering plenty for little eyes to explore on every page. The characters are expressive and full of personality, and the Gruffalo himself strikes the perfect balance between “scary” and silly—captivating rather than frightening young readers. The pacing of the story is perfect for bedtime or story time. It encourages early literacy by introducing playful rhymes, repetition, and rich vocabulary, all while teaching valuable lessons about courage, cleverness, and creative problem-solving. My child especially loves pressing the sound buttons in this edition, which add an interactive element and make reading time even more exciting. The book is well-made, with sturdy pages that can withstand enthusiastic page-turning. The sound panel is easy for little hands to use, and the clear, recognizable noises add a fun sensory layer to the story. If you’re looking for a story that children will ask for again and again, The Gruffalo is a must-have. It’s one of those rare books that parents won’t mind reading over and over, and it’s perfect for gifting or adding to any home library. ⭐ Overall: 5/5 stars – A modern classic that every child should grow up with! Review: Great story with realistic sounds! - A favourite story of my grandson. He enjoyed listening to the sounds with the story. There is an off switch! Beautifully illustrated board book for tots.

Food sound book if your child likes Gruffalo. Only complain is that Gruffalo sound is not working. The rest sounds working. Maybe it's just mine a bit faulty.
