A hilarious, minimalist story about patience and the ups and downs
of waiting from author-illustrator, Alice Courtley. Rabbit is
waiting for Froggo, quietly and patiently. Mouse is also waiting
for Froggo, but not so quietly or patiently... "What's a Froggo?"
Mouse asks. "When will they get here? What do they look like?"
Rabbit urges Mouse to wait but as more animals show up to join
them, things start to get more busy and chaotic. Just as Rabbit is
about to lose his temper, Mouse asks the biggest question: what if
Froggo doesn't come? Inspired by Samuel Beckett's Waiting for
Godot, Alice Courtley's Waiting for Froggo is a minimalist story of
the ups and downs of waiting with brilliantly expressive characters
and charming deadpan humour. Froggo is definitely worth waiting
for!

kitten Sammy in their perfect peaceful house. So when Granny
announces they are going on a big adventure to the city, Maya is

When they arrive amongst the towering grey buildings, Maya
discovers that Sammy has followed them! And when he escapes, Maya
must face her fears and look after him. A fun and adventurous story
about getting out of your comfort zone and how the love and support
of family can help you achieve almost anything.
