A Hundred and One Daffodils (a Bloomsbury Young Reader)
Author(s): Malachy Doyle; Denise Hughes (Illustrator)
A charming story with a woodland setting, ideal for children practising their reading at home or in school. Dusty the fox cub can't wait for her very first spring; Dad has told her there will be a big party. All Dusty has to do is find 101 daffodils to prove it really is spring. That is a lot of flowers! Will Dusty and her friends be able to find them all? This heart-warming tale from Irish author Malachy Doyle is perfect for children who are learning to read by themselves. It features engaging illustrations from Denise Hughes and explores the themes of seasons and plant life cycles.
