In a new book by English poet Julia Donaldson and artist Axel Scheffler, a funny and good-natured monster named Gruffalo gets a daughter. A caring dad persuades the little one not to go into the forest, where the terrible beast Mouse lives, «dashing and merciless.» Of course, as soon as the Gruffalo falls asleep, his daughter runs in search of the Mouse. Coming out of the forbidden forest far and wide, she still does not find any formidable beast in it. Now the little gruffal knows: the adults have fooled her, and there is no Mouse. Or… exists? The fourth book about the adventures of The Gruffalo, at home in Britain, recognized as the best book for children in 2005 (British Book Award), brilliantly translated into Russian by Marina Boroditskaya.
