ABBEY'S BOOKSELLER PICK ----- Anna van Ogre is a good little beast. She tramples on flowers, throws dirt in the house, eats with her mouth full – but sometimes she's bad, and pulls faces – like bunnies. Warned that if she isn't careful her face will stick like that, one day it does, and she is transformed into – an apple-cheeked sweet little girl! Her horrified family do everything they can, but Anna is now an outcast – until she figures out for herself how to change... .

Illustrated by Ian Falconer (of Olivia the Pig fame) in green and grey, this is a witty little fable about appearances and true beauty! Lindy

In this beautifully gross picture book, Anna Van Ogre’s lovely monster face turns into that of a sickeningly adorable, rosy-cheeked little girl — and it’s not switching back! Can she find a way to stop looking like an ugly human and regain her gorgeous monstrosity of a face?
