Haven review

Mike I Don’t Like

Three little words that parents of toddlers know all too well: I don’t like. Meet Mike, he doesn’t like baths, carrots, gibbons and many other things. This tricky toddler phase has been captured in a way that’s both true to life for parents and a fun read for the kids. A hilarious book for every parent whose child has suddenly decided they dislike everything.

HarperCollins RRP $19.99
