A delightful board book for toddlers and adults to have fun experimenting with words to create funny new ones.

Built on child-based wordplay, follow along as animals get up to everyday toddler mischief. Each page twists an animal name into a funny new word that is fun to share.

Each scene provides an illustration drawn from the notion of a toddlers everyday. Young children will recognise each activity: getting dressed, playing, painting (including themselves), having a bath, using the potty—and see how the animal makes the mischievous most of it.

The bumblebee breaks its toy—bumblebee grumblebee!
The cockatoo is getting dressed—cockatoo sockatoo!
The pelican tries out the potty—pelican smellican!
What will turtle do? Everybody gathers for the final squirtle.

Built for adults, babies and toddlers to share and read aloud, this fresh and sweet board book encourages experimentation with words and sounds, just by changing a letter or two.
