THE GRUFFALO
The Gruffalo
The Gruffalo has become one of the most popular characters for children.
Written by Julia Donaldson 'the Gruffalo' tells the magical story of a mouse taking a walk through the woods in search of a nut.
As he goes along he meets an owl, a fox and a snake all of whom want to eat him. Using his wits to survive he tells them that he is meeting a monster a 'Gruffalo'. Further along his way the mouse does indeed meet a real Gruffalo and as they walk together through the wood they meet up with the fox, owl and snake who are horrified at the Gruffalo - the Gruffalo becomes even more impressed at how terrifying the mouse is.
When, however, the Gruffalo decides to eat the mouse, he(the mouse) has to think quickly and tells the Gruffalo that his favourite food is 'Gruffalo crumble' at which point the Gruffalo runs away terrified of the mouse.
The mouse finds a hazelnut and the story ends as the snow falls.
The Gruffalo was first seen on TV in December 2009 and starred Rob Brydon, James Corden, Robbie Coltrane and Helena Bonham Carter.

Whie Nine out of 10 parents said reading books about animals increased children's interest in the natural world.
