Don’t Call Me Choochie Pooh! By Sean Taylor and Kate Hindley
This small dog is fed.up. He
has the MOST embarrassing owner ever!
He gets fluffed, shampooed, and spritz in smelly perfumes, is fed heart-shaped
Mini Puppy Treats, and worst of all he gets called the most mortifying
nicknames! He’s had enough and demands to his owner – don’t call me Choochie
Pooh! He just wants to do proper dog things, like chasing sticks, jumping in
puddles and playing with the big dogs in the park. A beautiful message about
making new friends and finding the ones to accept you for who you really are. Perfect
for fellow dog-lovers and those little children who just want to play with the
‘big kids’! Laugh-out-loud text by Sean Taylor paired with vibrant, expressive
illustration by Kate Hindley.
Alan’s Big, Scary Teeth by Jarvis
Alan is the biggest, scariest alligator in the whole jungle, famous for his sharp,
shiny teeth and razor-like nails he loves to spend his day snapping at all the
other animals. However Alan has a huge secret that no one knows about – he has
false teeth! One day his teeth go missing, how on earth is he meant to be scary
now, what will he do? Alan is so upset when all the other animals laugh at him
that he cries, but they agree he can have his teeth back as long as he stops
scaring everyone. A comedic tale about friendship and finding your true self,
Jarvis really delivers on an intriguing story and fun images to go along.
Five Minutes' Peace by Jill Murphy
It's 30 years since Jill Murphy's picture book classic Five Minutes' Peace was published, and it's just as funny and accurate a portrayal of family life as when it first came out! Mrs Large the elephant - who just needs five minutes of peace and quiet away from her boisterous children! So, taking refuge in the bathroom, she fills herself a hot, foamy bubble bath and takes in a tray of her favourite breakfast and the morning paper. But there's never a dull moment with the Larges, and it soon becomes clear that mum's quiet time is to be very short-lived! Family life is beautifully observed in this warm and funny modern classic from Jill Murphy, one of Britain's most treasured author-illustrators.
