The Little Crooked House - Hardcover

The familiar nursery rhyme of the crooked man, who lived with a crooked cat, a crooked mouse and their little crooked house is given a new twist in this exuberant picture book. Too noisy by the railway line, too hot and windy in the desert and too wet when it rains by the wide, wide river, the little crooked house keeps moving until it finds the best place by far where the crooked man can put his chair out front and the crooked mouse can play with the mice from the big houses. Finally they've all found a home! A lively and imaginative story by an award-winning author with colourful illustrations. Margaret Wild is a highly regarded author for children. This good story for early primary readers gives humorous, intriguing life to well-loved nursery rhyme characters. It includes lively watercolour illustrations.
