“A Squash and a Squeeze” - Julia Donaldson, Axel Scheffler

Language of book for review: Brazilian Portuguese - “Apertada e sem espaço”

Published also in:

German - “Mein Haus ist zu eng und zu klein”

English - “A Squash and a Squeeze” (Original)

One of the classics from Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, if you ask me. You can argue if these books keep their fun in a translated version, but I must say, I found it a very fun read in Portuguese.

The old lady lives in a small house and complains about her lack of space. The old wise man suggests to invite more and more animals into the house, until the old lady appreciates having the space to herself again… Smart message wrapped in a child-friendly story that is entertaining and light.

Our son instantaneously loved it. He repeated the chorus happily and wanted to read the book on and on.
