Astrid Lindgren
Expect anarchic humour, imaginative adventures and a central character who challenges adult authority. Pippi’s friendships, confidence and physical strength drive the fun, while the episodic structure offers distinct comic situations rather than one tightly unfolding plot.
Michael Rosen, illustrated by David Tazzyman
This is a performance-friendly poetry collection: playful sounds, repeated rhyme, comic images and short narratives offer opportunities to laugh, listen, join in and notice how words work.
John Steptoe
A traditional-style story contrasts two sisters: Manyara behaves harshly while Nyasha treats people and creatures kindly. Their journeys towards a king’s choice turn this contrast into a fable about pride, kindness and consequences.
Andy Stanton
Expect anarchic humour, eccentric characters and exaggerated unpleasantness. The story sets a grotesque villain against a dog and child hero, using suspense and comic reversals while inviting readers to laugh at absurd adult behaviour.
