My 5 year old son loves this book. He has just started getting to grips with poetry at school and so loves spotting the rhyming words and finding out the meanings of new words introduced in the poems. Beautifully illustrated, try counting the spiders in *every* picture! Lots of dragons and lots of feelings explored, from sad, happy, lonely, silly as well as the scary. Fully recommended for sharing, reading and discussing. My son liked it so much he took it to school and got his teacher to read out several of the poems to his classmates.
