Let's not forget the dog even he gets his share! HOORAY FOR BREAD! Slice by slice & crumb by crumb everyone eats their fill of bread with a teeny tiny mouse nibbling up the very last scrap. " Hooray"
- squeak-squeak
- "for bread!" But wait
- there are some missing slices! Where could have they gone? Is there a tasty double spread just for YOU? This is a deliciously playful read-aloud from Allan Ahlberg & Bruce Ingman two of the most popular picture book makers of their time. Bruce Ingman experiments with a softer younger style of illustration
- his gentle charming pictures complement the text perfectly. It is a book that celebrates bread whether it's a yummy cheese & ham sandwich or some buttery toast. It rejoices for its crunchiness & its crustiness its slices & its crumbs! What do we say? HOORAY FOR BREAD!"
