Catch That Egg!

Description

Floppit's farmyard friends have had enough of his enormous bunny feet. "Stop it, Floppit!" they sigh, every time he comes bouncing by. But his big clumsy feet might just save the day when Chicken's egg runs away . . . Help Floppit the big-footed bunny "catch that egg" in this fun farmyard egg chase. Perfect for fans of Rabbits Don't Lay Eggs! and Peppa Pig: Peppa's Easter Egg Hunt. Catch That Egg! is written by Lucy Rowland, the brilliantly talented author of Little Red Reading Hood, Jake Bakes a Monster Cake and Pirate Pete and His Smelly Feet, and Anna Chernyshova, the fantastic illustrator of Santa Selfie.

Lucy Rowland grew up in Cheltenham and gained a degree in Speech and Language Therapy from the University of Reading before becoming a children's speech and language therapist in South London where she now lives. Lucy has loved reading and listening to poetry from a young age and has turned her passion into writing picture book stories with quirky characters and irresistible rhythms. Stop That Egg! is Lucy's fourth picture book title for Macmillan Children's Books, following on from Little Red Reading Hood, Jake Bakes a Monster Cake and Pirate Pete and His Smelly Feet. Anna Chernyshova trained in academic drawing in her birthplace of Russia before studying the prestigious MA in Children's Book Illustration at the Cambridge School of Art. Anna was highly commended in the 2014 Macmillan Prize and has since illustrated several young fiction titles. Stop That Egg! is Anna's second picture book for Macmillan Children's Books, after her Christmas debut, Santa Selfie. Anna lives in Cambridge with her husband and young daughter who constantly inspires her book illustrations.

Anna Chernyshova's gorgoeus illustrations are a real stand-out feature of the book - they are packed with amazing detail and a superb group of characters. * Parents In Touch *
