Reviews

Ralfy Rabbit loves to read but, since his baby brother has been born, he finds finding a quiet space difficult. He goes to one of his favourite spaces - the library - but discovers that his book has a hole in it. Cue the hunt for the secret book biter. Will Ralfy find out the culprit?

This beautifully-illustrated book is a perfect book to share in EYFS and KS1. It promotes a love of literature as well as having shared interests with the ones you love.

The detective element of Beware! Ralfy Rabbit and the Secret Book Biter will also be draw for the children and, if you use the book as part of the curriculum, you'd be able to develop opportunities around the themes of family, detectives/crime and caring for things around you, whether that be people or objects

I'm sure this book will be a firm favourite.
