😍We recently visited Woodland Community Primary School and they really enjoyed the book 'Don't Think of Tigers'.
Check out these fantastic tigers they sent us inspired by the book! I think they could give @almaxlat a run for his money @AndersenPress 🐯

Godfrey is a Frog written and illustrated by @almaxlat from @OxfordChildrens is the "perfect starting point for PSHE lessons, circle time or assemblies in Early Years and Key Stage 1." 🐸 Thank you for this lovely review @StewardRos and @imaginecentre
