I didn't apply for this book as we already have it and love it. Mick Inkpen's illustrations are so friendly and are filled with humour. My DD particularly likes this story as she loves birthdays and parties.

She especially likes seeing Kipper make the higgledy-piggledy cake and then eat it all Grin The big mistake is also a brilliant 'Oh no!' moment that pulls her into the story. And the running joke of Tiger being a grey dog also tickles her. This is a fab story and really enjoyable to read together.

I do love Kipper! The pictures are gorgeous. We already have a copy of this story, but would love one of these special edition copies to give to school.
