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...

The Wild Washerwomen Reviews

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 *
