The Wild Washerwomen by John Yeoman

The Wild Washerwomen by John Yeoman

'Look out, the wild washerwomen are coming!' Once upon a time there were seven unhappy washerwomen, with far too much washing to do. When their voices aren't heard they decide to go on strike - and wreak havoc in the local villages. No one can control the washerwomen, until seven woodcutters, decide to try. But perhaps the washerwomen will teach the woodcutters a thing or two instead, and everyone might just live happily ever after...

"A rollicking good story; Quentin Blake's irresistible illustrations capture every madcap moment" * Julia Eccleshare, The Guardian *
"A wonderful treat for young and old alike and a real classic that should sit proudly on every nursery bookshelf." * Julia Eccleshare, Lovereading4kids *
"This book is a fairy tale with a difference. Mad, crazy, zany, chaotic: how else do you describe the exuberance which explodes over every page? Children of 3+ will adore this." * Blackbird Pie *
"A riot of a book." * Cork Evening Echo *
