Synopsis

Growl along with the Gruffalo in this noisy, interactive introduction to the deep dark wood!

Who is making that grumbling noise? Join Mouse on a journey through the deep dark wood to find out. Is it Snake, hissing in the leaves? Sssss! Is it Owl, hooting in the trees? Twit twoo! Or could it be the Gruffalo, with the loudest growl of them all?

Gruffalo Growl is a brilliant board book with a chunky, easy-to-press sound button on every spread, perfect for small paws. It helps develop fine motor skills and introduces the concept of cause-and-effect in a fun, engaging way – the perfect gift for younger Gruffalo fans.
