Den aller første boka fra radarparet bak Gruffalo! Huset til den gamle kona er altfor lite. Hva skal hun gjøre? En klok gammel mann vet råd. Men får kona bedre plass av å fylle huset sitt med husdyr … ? Fortellingen er basert på et folkeeventyr og ble opprinnelig skrevet som en sang til Barne-TV på BBC. En redaktør så programmet og mente at sangen kunne bli en fin bildebokfortelling. Sånn startet det langvarige samarbeidet mellom Julia Donaldson og Axel Scheffler – som altså ble valgt til å illustrere sangteksten.«Litt av en klassiker» THE GUARDIANHåkon Viggen har gjendiktet fortellingen til norsk på mesterlig vis.
