Daisy: You Do! by Kes Gray
Daisy's mum tells her: 'Don't pick your nose!" "You do!' says Daisy, pointing out the time mum was picking her nose on the way to Gran's. And each time Mum tries to reprimand Daisy for a bad habit, Daisy has an example of when Mum did it, too. If you liked Eat Your Peas and Really, Really, you will love this book!
"Humorous. . The pictures are sharp and colourful and the tickling scene at the end rings very true" -- Alison Boyle * Nursery World *
"A thoroughly enjoyable book" * Books for Keeps *
"A good-natured expose of the hypocrisy inherent in that parental maxim: do as I say, not as I do . . . What does Daisy get for being such a precocious know-it-all? A damn good tickling. Quite right too" * Independent *
"This is a great book for an adult and child to share, as the joke lies in the way it gently pokes fun at grown-ups' inconsistencies" * TES *
"The book's sweet characters, fun ending and Sharratt's signature bright illustrations make for a really upbeat, positive read" * Junior *
