Lulu is fed up of all the farmyard animals always telling her that she's too small to do things, so she decides to run away. When the horse, sheep and cow seem to get in her away, Lulu becomes even more determined to leave. But what will happen when she finally goes far, far away without Mummy?

Paulette Bogan is the author of another Lulu story, Goodnight Lulu, also published by Bloomsbury. Her three daughters, including the youngest, for whom Lulu was named, are a constant source of inspiration for her stories. Paulette lives in New York City.
PreSchool-Grade 2—Fed up with the restrictions that come with being so small, Lulu decides to leave the farm. With her pink purse and striped scarf, she passes the pigs, where she is quickly splashed with mud. She ventures on, entering the sheep pen. Her journey continues as she meets a horse and a cow, her anxiety growing with each encounter. Once the little chick finally reaches "far, far away," she is paralyzed with fear and mother hen swoops in. It becomes apparent that far away was never beyond mother's watchful eye. Just as in the author's Goodnight Lulu (Bloomsbury, 2003), large and bright watercolor-and-ink illustrations fill the pages, making this a great choice for group sharing. Small details abound and encourage a closer look at the background. Team this up with Margaret Wise Brown's The Runaway Bunny (HarperCollins, 1942) and Harry Horse's Little Rabbit Runaway (Peachtree, 2005) for a storytime on fleeing youngsters.—Laura Butler, Mount Laurel Library, NJ
