You Choose: Fairy Tales
Pippa Goodhart & Nick Sharratt (illustrator)
The third book in this series, You Choose Your Dreams, was picked by Marion Gillooly in the interview Dolly Parton's Imagination Library: Inspiring a Lifelong Love of Reading.
You Choose (book 4). Children can be in charge in this picture book series, which allows readers to create their own stories, with endless possibilities on every page. Age 3+
“I love Just Imagine because it’s so full of colour. It allows the child to take what they want from each page. You can take one picture from any page in this book and create a whole new story. Or talk about your own experience, or talk about which one’s your favourite. Although this book is for children turning five, much younger children love this book as well because it’s so accessible. It’s funny, it’s quirky, it makes them think, it has variety and gives the child control over how they use this book, how they enjoy it. You can pick up this book every day and see something different in it.” Read more...
