Join in the counting musical fun with this brand-new picture book from the author of Giraffes Can't Dance !
When a music-loving dog meets a fox with a fiddle, they decide to start a BOOGIE-WOOGIE ANIMAL BAND!
Before long, the pair are joined by a lion with a lute, a tiger with a tuba, and a piano-playing penguin. As more friends join them, the band keeps getting bigger and bigger and BIGGER!
But there's one band member missing . . . Who could it be?
Count and jiggle along with this toe-tapping rhyming celebration of music and rhythm from stand-out pairing Giles Andreae ( Giraffes Can't Dance ) and Nick East ( Christopher Pumpkin ).
Giles Andreae was born in London in 1966. His books have sold over 3 million copies worldwide, making him one of the most successful children’s authors working today. He began writing when he was at primary school and gets a lot of his ideas from trying to keep his own children entertained.
Giles is the hugely successful and talented author behind numerous award-winning children's books, including the bestselling Giraffes Can't Dance . He is also the creator of the well-known Purple Ronnie and Edward Monkton poetry ranges. Giles lives in London with his wife and four children.
His top tips for becoming a writer are: read a lot, write a lot and write from the heart.
