Little World: Shopping Trip

Introducing the interactive Little World series from Ladybird that makes our big world little.

Little World is designed for curious toddlers, allowing them to explore familiar landscapes and faraway places, from beaches and cities to outer space and ocean depths.

The gentle narrative is perfect for reading aloud, guiding children through the busy shopping centre as try on new clothes in the dressing room and pick a snack from the food court. A novelty slide, push or pull on every spread will engage children as they visit the busy and bustling shopping centre.

Sam Meredith's bright artwork and charming characters encourage interaction and play, with lots to spot, see and enjoy on every spread.

Reviews

'The authors navigated this difficult to explain and sometimes difficult to understand area with great empathy and simplicity . . . I think this is a great book and I'll continue to use it as a parent, sharing it with my kids as we try and understand the world of growing up together.'

—— Dan Sumpton , Sonshine Magazine

A wonderfully useful book, told with Dean Burnett's trademark wit and wisdom

—— Adam Kay, best-selling author of THIS IS GOING TO HURT

A transformative book that could save many troubled teen-parent relationships

—— Alom Shaha, author of Mr Shaha's Recipes for Wonder

A light touch on a serious subject. Great for helping teenagers learn how to maintain good mental health through the tricky years of adolescence, and understand just why their parents are so annoying!

—— Dr Beth Ross-Gilles, Child Clinical Psychologist

Every kid should have a copy of this book (parents can read it in secret late at night)

—— Tracy King, STEM Campaigner

Refreshingly frank, warm, honest and funny and really does relate to all the realities of the parent-teen relationship... Read this book if you're a teenager. If you know a teen, do them a favour and buy them a copy.

—— Make (Good) Trouble
