The Little Wooden Robot and the Log Princess
by Tom Gauld
Kids' Book of the Week , January 24, 2022
One of the best things a fairy tale can do is take a bizarre premise and make it seem natural, following wherever its strange rules lead. What would happen, for example, if a childless royal couple had two children made out of wood? In the hands of Gauld, who you may know from his Snooty Bookshop postcard set, the result is a tale told with all the lightness, heart, and adventure you could hope for in 32 pages. (Age 2 to 6)
