I absolutely have to update my post on books for boys ages 0 to 5 to include The Ravenous Beast by Niamh Sharkey.
After our son borrowed this book from the school library, I bought it for the kids for Christmas. They have requested it as their bedtime story every night since and, oh, the fun they’ve had!
If you can find it, I highly recommend the version with the Animated Story DVD read by Kevin Whately. Mr 5 knows the story by heart and can do all the voices. Even Miss 2 will shriek: “I am the hungriest of all!” at the appropriate place. Classic!
