About this title

Review:

Spot is one of the best-loved children's characters, with his seemingly limitless appeal growing with each new generation of children.

In Spot and his Grandparents go to the Carnival, Spot has an exciting day out, filled with new ideas and experiences. Eric Hill's bold illustration and straightforward, humorous and informative text makes this companion book to the film of the same name, the ideal book for parent and child to share together. (Ages 3 to 5)--Susan Harrison

About the Author:

Eric Hill (1927-2014) started his artistic career as an art studio messenger and from there went on to become a cartoonist and eventually an art director at a leading advertising agency. In 1978 Eric made up a story about a small puppy to read to his son at bedtime and Spot was born. The success of his first bestselling lift-the-flap classic Where's Spot? in 1980 convinced him to become a full-time author, and his Spot books have been enjoyed by children around the world ever since. In 2008 he was awarded an OBE for services to children's literacy.
