Terrible rhyming, it is just difficult vocabulary at some point, I don’t like reading this to my son, he asks me out of curiosity for the illustrations tho.

A nice rhyming story that got Noah, Orla and Imogen’s attention, whilst I never knew it was all about Gertie the chicken!

I was impressed that the pictures were interesting enough for my daughter, who usually rushes through books, wanted to look at them carefully.

If you don't speak English well, you can't appreciate the rhythm of words.

What’s with all the maids?? A bit antiquated for an “updated” nursery rhyme
