• Enjoy whimsical, layered storytelling with pirates, knights, and aliens
• Like The Gruffalo or Room on the Broom (same author-illustrator duo!)

Why You'll Love It: ✅ Axel Scheffler’s vibrant, detailed illustrations bring each nested story to life ✅ Julia Donaldson’s signature rhyming text makes it irresistible for bedtime ✅ Teaches creativity and the joy of sharing stories
Also consider the below aspects before you select: ❌ Fast-paced structure might overwhelm very young listeners ❌ Some fantasy elements (like aliens) could require light explanation
