The much-acclaimed toddler book series from The Gruffalo
illustrator, Axel Scheffler. Simple but engaging stories which
reflect the ups - and downs - of toddler life. Major new animation
series launching on Milkshake in 2021 Pip and Posy are best friends
- they love to play, and make things, and have fun. But just
occasionally they get cross or sad, and sometimes things go wrong
that are beyond their control. And that's when kindness and
understanding - and a cuddle - make everything better. In Pip and
Posy and the Super Scooter, Posy snatches Pip's scooter and tries
to ride it. Unfortunately, it's harder than it looks and she falls
off, giving herself a nasty cut. Though Pip was very cross, he
comes running to help Posy in her moment of need, giving her a
plaster for her sore knee. Posy apologises to Pip, and together
they build a sandcastle in the sandpit, where it's nice and soft.
