Alfonso the Alpaca LOVES books, but one day he realizes something terrible. Bears are EVERYWHERE in books. Alpacas are NOWHERE. So he decides to write a book himself. One with alpacas and bears in it. Together with Colin the Bear, Alfonso starts proving alpacas are as brilliant as bears, and that alpacas and bears belong in books together . . .

Once upon a time there was a little girl called Mabel. A girl who didn't like books. She used them for all sorts of things, from juggling to sledging, but she NEVER looked at the stories inside. Until the books decided they had had ENOUGH!

Clouds gather, skies darken, rain drops, puddles appear... Let's go puddling! Pull on your wellies and button up your coats for this playful, interactive story all about children delighting in the joy of splish-splash-sploshing in muddy puddles with their friends, and cherishing snuggles on the sofa afterwards. Emma Perry's debut on the Walker list encapsulates the joy of being outside whatever the weather, and is paired perfectly with Claire Alexander's watercolour artwork to recreate splashing puddles and raindrops!
