Oh dear, look what I got! / Michael Rosen ; illustrated by Helen Oxenbury.

Rosen, Michael, 1946- (author.). Oxenbury, Helen, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"I went to the shop to get me a carrot. Oh dear! They gave me . . . parrot. Oh dear! Look what I got. Do I want that? No, I do NOT! As a hapless boy goes from shop to shop, requesting a series of perfectly reasonable items--a hat, a coat, a cake, a chair--he finds himself thwarted at every turn, amassing instead a growing menagerie of animals who happily follow him on his errands. It's not until he finally asks for a cup that he's proffered a wriggly creature that solves his dilemma . . . or does it? Adding delicious momentum to Michael Rosen's rhymes (and mastery of the page turn) are an expressive crew of animal characters rendered as only Helen Oxenbury can, making for a timeless story guaranteed to beg many repeat readings. Oh dear!"-- Provided by publisher.
