Picture Book Bundle combines three fun picture books together to give a varied selection of stories for young readers aged 3-8 years.
The Colourful Moo whooshes the reader through all the seasons of the year and different types of weather in the company of Sue, ‘the coo with no moo’ and her friends on Oak Tree Farm. Despite the challenges of the weather and accompanying noises of her farmyard friends, Sue, the heilan coo, remains mooless until one magical day…
Can you remember all the animals and the sounds they make? Which animal friend is missing from the foggy day? Which animals arrive from Peru? Read this story out loud to fully appreciate the word play and hilarious rhymes which, unusually, all revolve around one rhyme.
Perfect gift for any young child interested in farms and animals. There is even a Farm Shop at the end – isn’t there always!!! – to encourage conversations about what grows on farms and the importance of fresh, locally-sourced food.

Kitty’s Scottish Safari follows Kitty Purry and her cat family on an unusual tour of Scottish animal statues, including the famous ‘Kelpies’, a unicorn and penguins, as she indulges her love of knitting.
Young readers can enjoy references to numbers, colours, clothing, animals and hobbies as they travel around Scotland in the company of not only the Purry family, but also a cheeky, stowaway mouse. Brian Robertson’s brilliant watercolour illustrations will have you laughing out loud, especially when seagulls attempt to steal Kitty’s Dad’s fish supper. And pay attention to the badge on his beret as it changes expression depending on how he is feeling!

Happy Broomstick Day takes you to Scairay Island where the celebrations for Broomstick Day are well underway. So why is Greta is sitting at home, alone with her cat? Wouldn’t she like to take part in the cat ‘n’ wand race or the three-handled race? And why did she have to be rescued from a frogsmelly cauldron? Being different can be dangerous, especially when you’re a witch!
With a story of over a thousand words, this is longer than your average picture book but together with Marjory Tait’s fabulous and funny illustrations – the cats steal the show! – it shows how things can go very wrong when you’re desperate to fit in. But despite all her problems, Greta is never truly on her own as other witches try to help and rescue her from difficult situations, especially her Auntie Flora who might just have found a way of ensuring Greta finally has a Happy Broomstick Day!
