Daisy: Really, Really




In this hilarious follow-up to the award-winning Eat Your Peas, strong-willed Daisy has the kind of babysitting experience every child dreams about.

When Daisy gets left with a babysitter for the first time, she eats up her mum's note and tells Angela that she usually has ice-cream and chips for tea, never gets dirty, and always stays up watching videos till midnight.'Really?' asks Angela.'Really, really,' fibs Daisy. But what will happen when Mum comes home? If you liked Eat Your Peas, you will really, really like this book!

Praise for Daisy: Really, Really

This is brilliantly structured so that it holds the interest when read aloud rather as a good joke before arriving at its punchline - Nick Sharratt's bright, simple pictures look almost as though an inspired child had produced them - and that may well be why children respond to them so warmly

Observer

A subtle and clever anecdote - a highly sophisticated book. The narrative is strong, the characters are distinctive and well-drawn. The ending is a stroke of brilliance

Daily Telegraph

Brilliantly witty
