"Going Shopping" portrays one of the most familiar family activities: the trip to the supermarket. Readers follow Mum, her two young daughters, and the family dog as they pile into the car, drive to the grocery, and do the weekly shopping. As in all her books, Garland's talent for observation turns a mundane experience into an occasion for fun. The minimal text serves as a starting point for Garland's witty, wonderfully detailed illustrations that engage and delight readers of all ages.
