A little look inside.

Nellie Mouse has invited everyone, from Ant to Zebra. Each arrival brings a new party problem, and the room is getting very full. Follow an animal ABC with a missing dance floor, a wobbling jelly and one rather important yellow hat.

Read the pictures and words together, or let the cast tell the story while you turn the pages.

From the book

Shall we turn the page?

Nellie Mouse in a large party room with her yellow hat and enormous invitation.
Nellie Mouse has a cake, a yellow party hat and a room that looks enormous. One window looks into a river. Another looks into the sea. Big doors lead out to the garden. Nellie writes one enormous invitation. "Everyone's invited!" Everyone?
Aa — Ant: Ant brings one crumb. It needs a plate of its own.
Ant brings one crumb. It needs a plate of its own. "Plenty of room," says Nellie.

Keep reading

Good to know.

Can we read without narration?

Yes. Turn the pages and read the words together. Narration is optional and begins only when you press play.

What can we download?

Read, listen and keep the story. Find the PDF, EPUB and complete read-aloud under Downloads for grown-ups at the end of the reader.

How should we choose a story?

Try the pictures, the opening and the voices. Pointing, listening, joining a sound or talking about a picture are all ways to share it. Choose the pace and level of help that suit your child.

For parents: story notes & sources

Play the party again

Try Lion's enormous breath and tiny whistle, invent one more guest, or see who spots Nellie's hat first. Share the jokes at your own pace.

A little letter looking

Each letter has a big form and a little form, such as Aa. Name them when your child is interested. X-ray tetra is a real fish with a translucent body; the party and its magical windows are invented.
