A boxed set of five vibrant, witty board books from multi-award-winning author-illustrator Chris Haughton.

In these five stories, join a lost Little Owl trying to find his way home, George the dog and his attempts to be good, a band of adventurers sneaking up on a tropical bird, a bear and his woodland animal friends getting ready to sleep, and Little Crab learning to be brave.

As pithy as fables and as laugh-out-loud funny as knock-knock jokes, this collection of sturdy and stylish board books is a must-have gift for new arrivals, and the perfect addition to a toddler’s first library.

Includes: A Bit Lost - Oh No, George! - Shh! We Have a Plan - Goodnight Everyone - Don't Worry, Little Crab
