Julia Donaldson's books, illustrated by Axel Scheffler, can be started very early, and they last a long time. They have been on our shelf for four years now, and the collection is constantly growing. Minimum text, in verse, full-page illustrations. Each book is a complete story, but secondary characters - all sorts of cats, dogs, birds - travel from book to book, and children are happy every time they meet old acquaintances. All the books were translated by Marina Boroditskaya. She translated it in such a way that the original loses out to the translation, although both the form and the spirit of the original are conveyed very accurately. And there are also wonderful short cartoons based on The Gruffalo and "Riding the Broom" - be sure to watch them.
