DescriptionOne day Boy and Girl go out for a picnic. They meet all sorts of creatures along the way - some come with them and some chase them, but whatever happens, today will be a day for Adventure! Promotion infoA truly exciting new book from John Burningham, in the grand tradition of MR GUMPY'S OUTING, with a wonderfully cosy ending Reviews"A delicate echo of Burningham's much-loved Mr Gumpy's Outing" -- Julia Eccleshare Guardian "The book invites children to identify the characters, and to point to them and to lost objects. The drawings carry their sophisticated skill lightly. An ideal step forwards from board books" -- Nicolette Jones Children's Book of the Week, The Sunday Times Author descriptionJohn Burningham is one of the most prestigious and well-loved illustrators working in the children's book field today.
