Book Synopsis

This warm, utterly delightful new picture book from Richard Jones includes a fun count-along element, shout-along sound words and a jam-packed fold-out page.

One day, a child meets a little bird and feeds it some breakfast. The next day, the little bird comes back with two pink-tailed mice, and the next day they are joined by four squirrels and then eight kind-eyed wolves and then sixteen elephants until eventually, one day, there are 255 animals to feed for breakfast!

But who, wonders the child, will make breakfast for me?!

Turn the pages – and count the creatures! – to find out…

Our Review Panel says...

In this book, the concept of sitting down to breakfast is shared with an ever-increasing company of animals! This is a story which uses repetition and sound, perfect for little ones to join in with. Each creature that joins the breakfast makes its unique sound, – ‘peck, tap, peck’, or ‘nip, top, tip’,.

The visiting animals range from the familiar to the more imaginative creatures from the world of fairy tales. Counting is a key element within the story as a whopping 255 all turn up for breakfast. The only way to present all of these animals on a page is through the use of a fold-out page, which will have children studying the beautiful images with fascination

This is a book that children will ask to share again and again, as, with every reading, something new will be seen or heard. It will be read on many different levels; observing the creatures, enjoying their sounds and then exploring the mathematical patterns. This is a book that will become a firm favourite in EYFS classrooms.
