  1. we are hoping to move house this year so this might help with it being such a big change
    @emmav6

  5. Liked on facebook and posted Alicia’s favourite book, this is the bear (who fell in the bin……) She knows it word for word and she’s only 2 🙂

  6. as nominated ‘bedtime story’ reader in our house, i’d love to own this book, to share with my two small boys:

    i think it would engage them

  8. My 3 yr old son adores books, his fave at the moment is ‘Dear Zoo’ which he chooses to read every night!! Would be great for him to have a new favorite 😉

  9. I would love to win’ Peepo’ for my little girl, it will of been read by three generations of my family and every one of us has loved it. Such a lovely illustrated book by a brilliant author. What an amazing prize ! re-tweeted !!

  10. Both my kids would love this book!! my daughter is rhyming everything and my son loves anything stinky!!

  11. Zog is my boys’ (6 and 4) favourite book of the moment. We have one copy which they both want to read at the same time so a second copy would be great so that “Now that you’ve been shown you can practise on your own…”

  12. I would most like this book, as my son is only 2 but already loving to learn about things and has recently ‘discovered’ dinosaurs. We read a lot together but don’t have many non-fiction books so this would fill a gap in our book collection as well as stimulating his imagination.

  14. I would love to read this and also my son would too, I have heard so many good things about this book, its sounds like a great read

    I have tweeted as @tiawanawana

  15. I would love to win the ‘Happy Baby Book with Bounce Along CD’ . Its so important for children to develop their creative skills and through music and rhymes this can be done. When listening to rhymes and music children are full of smiles while learning so much including communication, language and literacy. This book and CD meets so many developmental needs my daughter is 18 months and she would love it.

  18. My daughter, currently 11mths, adores books! She will crawl past musical toys to get to her bookshelf and pull off her favourites to ‘read’. We love to sing and sign together and The Wheels on the Bus is a great song so would love a book version too 🙂

  20. My daughter loves cats and very much misses our cat who died last year, so I’m intrigued to find out how this one turns out.

  21. The Gruffalo is the one I’d pick because I’ve heard of him but don’t know the story so it would be a great one to read when I’m babysitting!

  22. This is the book I would love to own as my grand daughter loves being read stories. At only 2 years of age she already has agreat collection of books.

  25. Our favourite book ’http://www.thebookclub.co.uk/peepo-3094.html
    – the gingerbread house recommended me! We are slowly working our way through my fav books from when I was a child. The last book was the tiger that came to tea and I want my potty! This is next!
    Liked on facebook too

  27. Our son is picking up words at a rate of knots now so this book would be great to increase his vocabulary and improve his diction.

  28. I’d love to own this and give it to my daughter as it is in the series of books that she is asking to read next.
    Thanks
    Laura

  29. War Horse Michael Morpurgo
    I feel that this book would help me introduce my grandson another side to war that would enable us to discuss it in a useful way

  32. This is my absolute favourite. My children who are 24, 21 and 17 all loved it and now so does my grandaughter!

  33. Strangely enough, I didn’t read this book until I was an adult! Thought it was hilarious and touching, so I’d love to read it to my niece and see a child’s reaction to it.

    (Did the FB bit!)

  34. My 1 year old son would love this. Comes with an audio CD too so will drown out the sound of my voice when singing to him!!

  35. The book I would like would be Bedtme Rhymes:

    Bedtime is a relaxed time to share and enjoy rhymes and stories. I like rhymes because they explore language and sounds in a fun and lightharded way and stimulate the imagination to develop their pithy plot further.

  37. The book I would love is:

    My daughter loves all her books and we dont own this one yet

  38. My little girl would love What The Ladybird Heard as she loves ladybirds and animals, and she loves making animal noises.

  39. My daughter’s a huge Jacqueline Wilson fan and would love to read this one (we are on the library’s waiting list!). It sounds a bit more light-hearted than some of her work.

  40. The perfect story to send my little pirate off to dream about his own treasure hunts.

  41. Story of Peppa Pig.
    We have booked to take my grandaughter to see Peppa Pig at West Yorkshire Playhouse in June & would love to win this for my husband & I to read to her.

  42. This would be the perfect book for my Son who is fascinated by any information to do with WWI/WWII!

    Liked and posted on Facebook
    Followed and retweeted – @norty1309

  44. Would be ideal for my 4 Granchildren 3 of whom are avid readers, the 4th one is too young but loves being read to.

  45. For my eldest niece as she is just starting to get into history and is insatiably curious

  46. Have heard great things about this book and Julia Donaldson is a fav in our house already, so am sure that this would be a great addition to our bookshelf!

  50. A lovely prize & it would be ideal for my little granddaughter to have read to her every night

  52. I’d love a “Happy Baby Book with CD”
    It’s perfect for us and our 10 months old daughter who enjoys clapping, waving and listening to the songs very much!

  54. I ‘Liked’ The Book Club on facebook and posted the link on their wall to my favourite book.

  55. Spend all day reading The Gruffolo – its my 1 year olds favourite book so I know he’d love this too!

  60. Dangerous Animals we have lots of questions in our house on this topic some that I can’t always answer so this would come in handy!!!

  63. The Gruffalo as it seems very popular with my daughters friends but we’ve not read it yet.

  64. We would love to own this garden detectives handbook! My sons would love it, and it may also be able to answer their questions better than I can!

  65. Time for bed, Max and Millie would be a topical choice for my little man, who would rather play than go to bed.
    Many thanks for a fab giveaway! We love books.

  70. We would love to own

    It is one of the few we don’t have from Julia Donaldson.

  79. I still have all my Enid Blyton books from when I was a child and have passed these on to my child who is expecting her own baby now and when they are old enough I will enjoy reading the Famous Five Go Down to The Sea, one of my favourites

  81. I would love the Princess Polly’s Potty My 18 month old daughter is a big fan of reading and I would love this book to get her prepared for potty training in the summer.

  82. I think my 3 year old son would love this book he loves trying to find something on every page in this case the ladybird.

  84. I like the look of this one: .

    My son is just getting the hang of reading now and I think he would like this.

  85. i would love the gruffalos child, my daughter loved the gruffalo so i think this would be perfect. shes very clever for a two year old and loves books so i wouldnt want to waste such a talent. i think we would have lots of fun reading this together and looking at the lovely bright pictures x

  89. I would love this as we really enjoyed the christmas special and it would be wonderful to see it in print and read it to my children

  93. i would love to sit down with my daughter and look through this book, shes loving learning about the world and its different cultures at the moment, this book would help her alot.

  98. would love to win this for my daughter, she is 3 months so would be good to make bath times more fun!

    then I might be able to answer some of my son’s many questions about outer space!

  115. it is a beautiful book. the pages are all glittery and touchy feely which my daughter loves at the moment,

  117. The Monkey Puzzle because my little girl loves it but her baby brother ripped it up so we really miss reading it (even though we know the words off by heart now!)

  119. this looks exactly the sort of book my son would love to read, he can be a reluctant reader and the title will tempt him

  126. I’d love to own What the Ladybird Heard, looks like a great fun book that my 2 year old daughter would really enjoy 🙂
