Look insideA Squash and a Squeeze
It launched Julia’s name, it’s 20 years old and it has a cow dancing a jig. Gotta like it. This special anniversary edition includes unseen drawings from Axel’s sketchbook and a new foreword by Julia herself. The old lady’s house is poky and small. Gosh, what a squash. What a squeeze. A cow on the table, a goat on the bed, and a pig in the larder munching the bread. Not to mention a big flapping hen. Will this house ever feel empty again? The very first story that Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler ever created together. The start of an epic partnership: the place where The Gruffalo began.

I liked this book because the lady puts all her animals in her farm house and all the animals start to mess up the house
