A Squash and a Squeeze

by Julia Donaldson   |  Ages 0-5
A Squash and a Squeeze
A Squash and a Squeeze

A riotous rhyme about gratitude and perspective.

Perfect for little listeners who love repetition, animals, and playful chaos. The lively rhymes make every read-aloud irresistibly fun. Its clever ending gently shows how changing perspective can transform everything.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

A classic rhyming picture book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. A little old lady lives alone in a house that’s too small. When a wise old man suggests bringing in farmyard animals to fill the space, she tries it—only to discover that her home grows larger once the animals go away. This board book edition is perfect for younger readers.
