Product Description

Mr Benn lives at 52 Festival Road. He is an ordinary man who visits an unusual fancy dress shop where he tries on an outfit and, as if by magic, enters a world full of surprises and adventure...

From the golden age of children's television, this cult classic is back in this beautiful gift collection of four of the Mr Benn books - Diver, Red Knight, Spaceman and Caveman - first published by Hodder in 1993. (20091115)

This book came out in 1993 and is based on the TV series. It is a much larger book than I expected, with huge pictures which look exactly the same as the TV series, only with some words too. My two year old is a Mr Benn fan, and immediately got to work thumbing through the book and pointing out Mr Ben, the dragon, etc. Excellent buy and at less than 7 pounds cheap too.

I bought this book together with a Mr Benn DVD for my six year old daughter. She is not really into Princesses or fairies but has a very lively imagination. There is a real innocence and simplicity to these stories and they do not seem dated at all. Mr Benn goes into his local fancy dress shop, chooses a costume and then has an adventure appropriate to the outfit he is wearing. My daughter absolutely loves these stories and I enjoy reading them to her. I think that this book is very well priced and would make a lovely present for a little boy or girl. It certainly takes me back to my own childhood and I have enjoyed watching the DVD. If you are stuck for ideas when buying an inexpensive gift I would recommend Mr Benn!!

We purchased this book for use in school with 5-6 years olds. The children thoroughly enjoyed each of the different stories and it gave us enough material for two weeks worth of Literacy.
