The Gruffalo by Julia Donaldson, despite being a children's book, is a much-loved book by children and adults alike. :)
It's beautifully illustrated by Axel Scheffler and tells the captivating story of a mouse that takes a walk through a deep and dark wood.
The book has won several prizes and has sold over 11 million copies - it's even been made into a play on the West End!
The book is written for readers between the ages of three to seven.
