5.0 out of 5 stars As always, a lovely book., 26 Feb 2002
By A Customer
My daughter (aged 3)loves all the Alfie stories, and is particularly taken with all "drip" and "splash" sound effects in this one. Any Alfie fan will enjoy this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Shriley Hughes - Best Childrens Writer, 7 Aug 2008
By Manx Mann (Isle of Man) - See all my reviews
As with all books written by Shirley Hughes, this is an excellent book which my 3 year old son really enjoys having read to him time and time and time again and so does dad.

We have all the Alfie, Annie Rose and Olly & Me books and can't recommend them highly enough. Shirley Hughes's writing is funny, endearing with recognisable stories. Her wonderful illustrations are little pieces of art, each and everyone. Nobody can depict the essence of young children the way they are, like Shirley Hughes.

Shirley Hughes's Nursery collection is excellent for under 3 age group.

I would also like to recommend the Katie books (Sunflowers, Mona Lisa & the Impressionists)by James Mayhew. Because of these books my 3 year old son loves going to art galleries to see the actual pictures.
