Having just read Judith Kerr's Creatures, I really wanted to read this book and I wasn't disappointed. These may have a flashback affect of some of grandmas furniture or decor including throw pillows, curtains or maybe even a table cloth.This book is a great little keeper that has a bit of a fun rhyming quality to it, which is always a huge plus in my book! The punks might have sneered at first, but they soon realized that the Great Granny Gang was to be taken seriously. She is also the author and illustrator of numerous picture books, including The Tiger Who Came to Tea, which was first published in 1968 and has since sold more than one million copies worldwide.

Judith Kerr shows us that there is a lot more to this bunch of grey-haired grannies than meets the eye!
