For Little Slugs aged 5+ and every fan of Matilda, this quality product from The Book People is a light up canvas artwork measuring 19.5cm across and 30cm or 12" tall, white stretched canvas across a wooden frame with the text 'I'm wondering what to read next' and the unmistakeable line art of Quentin Blake showing Matilda herself with a book wide open, standing on a pile of books reading aloud to a crowd of eight merry children with their hands raised and smiling gleefully, throwing pens and books and bags and shoes into the air. Non-replaceable LED bulbs are supplied and 3 x AA batteries (not included) are required. Best of all, the LED lights can change colour as the artwork YOU have coloured in is illuminated: the book can become pink, Matilda's face a fleshy colour and her long hair darkened. Very clever stuff and a quality gift product.

Cinderella, Hansel and Gretel, The Emperor's New Clothes and The Wolf and the Seven Little Kids are the three much-loved and one not so well known stories recounted in this rather special big board book. The story is abridged on the right side and then a famous scene from the story depicted in a 48 piece jigsaw puzzle on the right page - slot all the parts in and store them there when finished. Hansel and Gretel approach the gingerbread house with the old lady at the door, the animals in the forest looking on, even washing on the line next door, a glorious waterfall and a prince on a white horse trotting across a bridge. For Cinderella there is the golden carriage waiting as she flees down the steps, pursued by the prince and loses her golden slipper. The Emperor is not quite naked wearing some kind of pink frilly knickerbockers as the townsfolk looks on aghast; and lastly the wolf dressed as the shopkeeper knocks at the door where the nanny goats children peep through the crack and see his coal-black feet. There is no jigsaw for this one. Designed for children ages five and over, CE safety approved and designed to develop fine motor skills, awareness and logic. They are also great fun for jigsawers of any level and age, and collectors.
