Title: Depressing
Product review: My 3 year old was given this book for his birthday and upon reading it we were distressed by its sombre nature.Dad disappearing,mum looking nothing short of miserable at the breakfast table and then having no idea where he'd gone was beyond belief.After pasting "Come back dad" stickers all over the house the boy embarks on a journey through a forest.There he meets yet more sad children who are also looking for their parents.We found nothing in this book of benefit to a 3 year old,the illustrations were detailed but harrowing and the references to fairy tales cryptic.We want our 3 year old to be happy and enthusiastic about life so we have chosen not to add this book to his book shelf.Incidently dad does return but if I was mum I'd be suitably furious!!
