The Mouse Family Robinson

A delightful story with a truly engaging mouse hero - just right for new readers of 7+.

If only that horrible cat didn't live here!'

When Beaumont Robinson, an inquisitive young mouse, is nearly killed by the cat, his family decide there is only one thing to do. They must emigrate! And so they all set out on a midnight adventure to find a new house.

Reviews

The book tunes in perfectly to children's sense of humour and is pretty well guaranteed to have them giggling throughout, at both the story and Richard Watson's entertaining illustrations. Great fun, drawing the reader in right from the start.

—— Parents In Touch

Irrepressible young dog Junior is back with a dog's-eye-view of Christmas, or as he knows it, Crisp-Mouth ... His enthusiasm knows no bounds, and it proves a real struggle to be good, especially as Junior consistently gets things WRONG ... Junior's breathless narrative style and Richard Watson's illustrations make this super-readable, and newly confident readers will love this funny story and its bouncy, endlessly optimistic narrator.

—— Andrea Reece , Lovereading4Kids

Expect this naughty rhyming story to be a seasonal favourite

—— The Bookseller

Great for little people

—— Burnley Express

They have masterminded a work of genius.

—— Philip Stone , The Bookseller

A very, very silly book written by two members of pop band McFly, Tom Fletcher and Dougie Poynter. The story revolves around Danny – a very greedy boy who asks Father Christmas for too many presents. But Father Christmas decides enough is enough and instead gives Danny a huge Dinosaur which results in a very messy and smelly consequence. If your child liked Aliens in Underpants or The Story of the Little Mole, they will love this funny yet cautionary tale.

One of the funniest, and one of the most irreverant Christmas books out there. . . If you like your humour to be slightly scatological in nature, then The Dinosaur That Pooped Christmas will have children in fits of laughter (and a large amount of adults too). . . Brilliant!

—— Martine Horvath , EYE magazine

Beautifully illustrated, really funny and rather smelly

...exceptionally beautiful... A modern fable, with a timeless message to appreciate what we have before it is too late.
