Description
Could you pass the test to join the Tickle Squad? One brave mouse is willing to give it a go! It's easy to tickle a giraffe and fun to tickle a bear. An octopus is trickier (underwater with all those arms) but tickling a crocodile is the hardest one - with those sharp teeth! This is a ticklish tale that children will love.
Reviews / Votes
"White's simple plot uses a predictable rhyming scheme that will lull young readers into the singsong story... Reynold's vividly coloured, cartoonish characters leap from the pages" * Irish Times * "The rhythm is ticklish and fun" * Kirkus * "Adrian Reynolds is an expert at illustrating animals and they wriggle and squirm and laugh in a series of delightful images." -- Andrea Reece * Lovereading4Kids * "Kathryn White's rhyming text, coupled with Adrian Reynolds' bright, humorous pictures make this a picture book that will be great for reading aloud and sharing with others." * Armadillo Magazine *More details
