Book synopsis

A brilliantly funny rhyming story full of favourite farm animals, A Squash and a Squeeze is the first ever picture book written and illustrated by the unparalleled picture book partnership of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, creators of The Gruffalo.

A little old lady is fed up with how small her house feels. Whatever can she do? The wise old man knows: bring in a noisy crowd of farmyard animals. When she pushes them all out again, she'll be amazed at how big her house feels!

This classic story is a must-have addition to the bookshelves of all Donaldson and Scheffler fans – big and small!
