" "Hughes distils the essence of a happy childhood into her words and pictures and if every child can't have the real thing, they should at least have the book." The Sunday Telegraph "A book to encourage talk and to extend vocabulary in a throughly enjoyable way." Child Education"

Product Description
A series for young children on "doing' words. These new books by Shirley Hughes are an extension of her Nursery Collection. Featuring the same lively little girl and her baby brother, the books focus on "doing" words, such as giving, bouncing, chatting and hiding. The books show, through pictures and lots of humour, the many different meanings and applications that one verb can have. Shirley Hughes' awards include the Kate Greenaway Medal for "Dogger" and also the prestigious Eleanor Farjeon Award for her services to children's literature. She has written and illustrated "The Shirley Hughes Nursery Collection", "Out and About", "Angel Mae", "The Big Concrete Lorry", "The Snow Lady" and "Wheels".

Great book to teach the concept of giving
7 Oct 1999
Format:Paperback
This is a very worthwhile book -- the illustrations are delightful and kid-friendly, and the words help young children understand both the concept of giving to people, and the concept of being the recipient of gifts. I'm going to buy more of Shirley Hughes' books.
MY THREE-YEAR-OLD LOVES THIS BOOK!!
4 Feb 1998
Format:Paperback
This is a story which my son continually asks me to read. It explores several concepts of giving, and we have thoroughly enjoyed it. He loves the story, and the illustrations are a treat for Mom! It's definitely a favorite in our house!
