Praise for 'Mog the Forgetful Cat’:'Grandparents are likely to get as much fun out of seeing it again as the new generation of fans just learning to read! I think a relationship with your grandparents is really important and one of the big advantages of this current generation where people are living longer. There are some lovely moments, like when one of the grown-up characters, the victim of a daring bakery raid, worries what his mum will say about all this, and when the perpetrators, a gang of teenager hoodies, get their comeuppance from the granny gang.

I really don’t think you can go wrong with Judith Kerr, her stories are always entertaining, her rhymes make for lovely read aloud books and her illustrations are always warm and welcoming. Years later she wrote about her experiences in her best-selling novel for middle-grade readers When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit. I'm not totally happy with the demonising of hoodie wearers (thinking of those extra shy children who like to hide within their clothing). As your child dives into the world of 'Great Granny Gang,' they'll develop essential skills across multiple subjects, from maths and English to science and history. These may have a flashback affect of some of grandmas furniture or decor including throw pillows, curtains or maybe even a table cloth.
