This stunning collection of Ladybird Tales is based on Ladybird's original best-selling Well-Loved Tales series, with stories by Vera Southgate and beautiful, detailed illustrations to capture the hearts of a new generation of readers. Children have always loved these stories and sharing them together is an experience to treasure.
And your mother's mother read them to her, and your mother's mother's mother read them to her.
That's the way it's always been since the beginning of time. Or the early 1800s, if a quick Google search about the origin of these stories is to be believed.
So it makes sense that you read them to your kids.
It's basically a rite of passage.
