Editorial Review:

Trade is booming for Wallace and Gromit's Wash'n'go window-cleaning service and love is in the air as Wallace falls for the owner of the local wool shop, the delightful Wendolene Ramsbottom. But with Wallace's new invention, a knit- o-matic machine, sheep rustlers and Wendolene's malevolent pooch on the prowl, life is about to get much more interesting.

This wonderful pop-up book allows the world of Nick Park's Wallace and Gromit to spring to life and captures all the freshness and fun of the award-winning series. As with the cartoon, there are very few words, the action is all in the pictures and, with plenty of tabs to pull and flaps to lift, the action moves in 3-D. This is the closest you will get to the cartoon without a video player. (Ages 4 to Adult)

Personally, I really enjoyed this book. At first i thought it would be a little sad, but then i couldn't put it down! Both Wallace and Gromit were really fun and the way it was all laid out was great! I would recommend it to all my friends!
