GORGEOUS illustrations really add to this fun story of Hen, Goose and Duck as they attempt to have the perfect picnic on a lovely day.
There is a great opportunity for children to improve/practise memorising details and singing along as the three hapless birds struggle to find the right spot for their very healthy picnic.
There is also a clever, unwritten story for children to spot as the reason for the poor three birds' disappearing bounty is revealed in the illustrations rather than the text.
All in all, a lovely tale, gently told and quite funny. Great for three to five-year-olds.
