Out Today!! "You Can't Let an Elephant Drive a Digger" by Patricia Cleveland-Peck and David Tazzyman (Bloomsbury Children's Books)

Forget the elephant in the room, what about the Elephant trying to horn in on your building site? More fun from Patricia and David!
From the team behind "You Can't Take an Elephant on the Bus" comes another rhyming romp par excellence.

"You Can't Let an Elephant Drive a Digger" by Patricia Cleveland-Peck and David Tazzyman is a crazy look at the animal kingdom.

Kids love animal books but always love a neat twist or two - and the twist here is the entirely unsuitable activities that a whole zoo full of animals are trying to get up to.

Elephants driving diggers is bad enough but would you let a shark scrub your back in the bath? It might be the last bath you ever take!

What about letting a Skunk share your bunk? PEW-EEEE!

Patricia's rhymes are tongue-tripplingly perfect and David's chaotic, crazy and cool illustrations fit the bill perfectly.

Another total winner from Pat and Dave!

C's best bit: Stinky skunks hogging the top bunk (and eating trash! Ew!)

Daddy's favourite bit: Tons of rhyming fun, brilliant illustrations, a perfect follow-up to "You Can't Take an Elephant on the Bus"

"You Can't Let an Elephant Drive a Digger" by Patricia Cleveland-Peck and David Tazzyman is out today, published by Bloomsbury Children's Books (kindly supplied for review).
