All time classic, I have read and reread it with my son, together with The Gruffalo's Child, so many times, I know it by heart. Any Julia Donaldson's book is a pleasure for both children and their parents.
I liked the gruffalo
I mean, it's The Gruffalo. Like, the possible BEST children's book of this day and age. Take the rhyming for example. Simply incredible! And the plot is pretty good too. So, what's not to like?
I have this book at home now as it is one of my favourite. The mouse is very clever and I like it when the gruffalo doesn’t want to get eaten and runs away.
I like reading the gruffalo
I really liked this book. Smaller children might find it a little scary. I enjoyed reading it and the ending was good.
I enjoyed the repetition, I liked the pictures, I laughed when mammy did the voices for each character
I love the Gruffalo and the mouse. I like how the mouse manages fear and is so brave and creative.
Brilliant!
I thought The Gruffalo book was good because there was animals in it and it was a really, really good book. I liked the story because of the rhyming.
fab book
"ahh monster" (she's nearly 2 and enjoyed the book but was wary of the actual gruffalo)
I like the rhythm and almost telling the story like it’s a song
Likes the rhymes and thought the mouse was very clever
it was an interesting story how a mouse save itself from different animals and also make fool of Gruffalo .
It was funny
I love the rhyming in this book and the story is great! Everyone knows this book and if they don’t then they should definitely read it!
I love this book. The mouse is very brave and funny. I like the pictures
I love it
I little brother likes me to read him this book
I like the fox and the story is very funny
Funny
I liked this little clever mouse. I would recommend it to all children and for children with special needs, because the book is colourful and they will like it.
The gruffalo story has very good description which helps with the Imagination.
I loved the mouse the best and I would recommend the book because it’s fun to read.
I like this book becuase I went on a Gruffalo trail and Mummy read it to me when we was walking and then I read it to her when we went to bed. The mouse doesn't believe the gruffalo but it is real.
I liked the fox.
He's the best
The gruffalo is one of my favourite books I know it all without looking at the words
I really enjoyed reading this book, and I can interact with the storyline very well.
This has been one of my favourite books for a very long time.
