Kipper’s Rainy Day: Book Review
I was fortunate enough to receive a big pile of books from Hill and Knowlton a couple of weeks ago. I decided not to give them to Erin all at once but to spread them out over the summer (read: keep them as a secret stash for when I want half an hour to blog!), the first one doled out was Kipper’s Rainy Day, I should mention that all the books are from the Kipper series and were given in connection with Fairy’s “Make Story Time Special” initiative.
I have to say this book really set the standard, we spent a really pleasant half an hour reading and re-reading the story (which I won’t spoil for you…), although I can tell you it threw up discussions about the weather, animals and the noises they make. It’s a lift the flap book which adds to the enjoyment, for Erin not me (there so rough with them…!). I’d highly recommend this book for a toddler aged child, it’s definitely up there as one of the best books we have.
My kids love the Kipper cartoon so this will be a great addition to their book collection – thank you.
You’re Kipper fans too! We can’t get enough of the little puppy.
I saw the title and instantly thought of fish. Do people really eat kippers for breakfast there? I’ve always wondered if that was just a stereotype thing.
Yeah, kippers are a bit of a speciality, although you won’t walk into the average home and find people eating a breakfast of kippers (not in my family anyway) perhaps if you go to a nice hotel they would be on the menu or if you lived further north (than Edinburgh!).
