Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Every parent knows how children can weep and wail when their favourite toy goes missing. This stunning picture book tells the tale of Tatty Ratty, a rather battered and mangled soft toy who gets left on a bus. As the story develops, and little Molly tries to work out what on earth she is going to do without him, her mother soothes her with stories of how Tatty Ratty might not be lost at all--maybe he is just off having a few fine adventures of his own...

Superb storytelling combines with stunning illustrations, subtly capturing childhood moods, while a riot of fun and colour is had as Tatty's adventure unfolds. This is a truly comforting story for any child who has ever lost something--or someone--they love. (Ages 3 and over.) --Susan Harrison

Review
"* 'This is a book to savour' Guardian on Pumpkin Soup. * 'Her enchanting use of colours, magical eye for detail and captivating stories make her books stand out' The Oxford Times.

5.0 out of 5 stars A beautifully illustrated, magical book, 13 Jan 2002
By A Customer
Molly has lost her favourite bunny "Tatty Ratty": The story unfolds through wonderful illustrations as Molly and her family imagine what's happened to Tatty Ratty. Simply, but beautifully told, each page brings enchanted delights in words and pictures. A wonderful children's book!

By A Customer
Tatty Ratty is such a special book. The story is enchanting, with simply the cleverest, most perfect ending; and the illustrations are incomparable. My children will treasure this book forever.

This review is from: Tatty Ratty (Paperback)
We love Helen Cooper books and this is one of the best. As always her illustrations are exquisite we spend ages looking at every page to make sure we don't miss anything. She has a real nack of understanding children and the way that they think which makes her stories just as enjoyable at bedtime for parents as children. If you enjoy tatty ratty make sure you get the baby who wouldn't got to bed and pumpkin soup which are equally lovely.
