Any fans of the legendary Anthony Browne will not be disappointed by this, his latest picture book.
Following the story of Ernest, who wonders what else life may offer, and wanders off to find it, we see a classic tale of asking for help and rejection before a mouse saves the day and helps him find his way back to his mum.
Full of the usual incredible illustration, there is something to be discovered in every picture and on every page, and readers could spend hours enjoying following Ernest's journey in the bright, colourful and amazingly detailed pictures alongside the words.
Another surefire success from a legend of children's literature. Thank you to Kirsten and Walker Books for sending me a copy for review.
