Gruffalo Granny Julia Donaldson Book

The Gruffalo tells his daughter that Granny is coming to stay, bringing a new family visit to the deep dark wood. Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler return to their much-loved world with familiar characters and a fresh adventure. Their partnership of lively language and expressive pictures makes this an inviting read to share, with the excitement of a relative's arrival giving children a warm starting point for conversation and anticipation.

Age suitability and learning: Preschool (3-5), Primary (6-8). Rhythm and repeated language help younger listeners join in, while primary readers can explore the words and pictures more closely. Reading aloud supports listening, sound awareness and expressive speech; following the story encourages recall and talking about what happens next.
