Simple, but clever clues to each animals, my class of year 2s found it a challenge to remember which letter comes next without going from the beginning each time . Sharon has a passion for innovation, and her artwork and clever use of paper cutting encourage the reader to think differently about the pages they hold in their hands.

Lovely interactive book with flaps and peep-through cut-out pages; an alphabet through animals, with a short sentence about each animal. It's fun to find the flaps, which fold out in different ways, making it a bit more interesting (though very little hands may need a bit of help here). I know some people don’t like that the book doesn’t make a great amount of sense (they way they go from one animal to another).

Further books illustrated by Axel include Room on the Broom, Stick Man, Zog and The Smeds and the Smoos – all of which have been made into much-loved animated films by Magic Light Pictures. I'm not 100% sure if a child would want to read it over and over again, once they've figured out everything, but I think some would. No missing or damaged pages, no tears, possible very minimal creasing, no underlining or highlighting of text, and no writing in the margins.
