A breakfast time mutiny led by a sausage!
Jay enjoyed this. It's a nice easy read that older children can read themselves. Filled with fun and mischief as each item on the plate decides one by one that they are leaving. And I loved that toast didn't leave butter and jam behind.
Vividly illustrated in comic form by Peter Kendall bringing each food item to life.
A Sausage Went for a Walk is a humorous classic, picture storybook reprinted for a new generation of children to enjoy.
My only very small problem with this was the rhythm and flow of the words took me a couple of readings to get the hang of.
