A perfect story to settle all anxieties and reassure all fears. Witty, tender and beautifully illustrated, this story of Pip, a very small creature with a very big list of things that are scary, is a joy to read. Pip is frightened of all the usual things, but he’s also frightened of all kinds of unusual things too.
How on earth will he manage when he gets lost in the dark and frightening wood? Luckily, Pip finds he has unexpected reserves of courage – and so will all young readers.
A very little rabbit has big fears - lots of them! The teeth of the giant wood troll, the gobbler blowing bubbles at the bottom of the pond, the horrible hisster weaving its web - Pip sees scary things wherever he looks. But one dark night in the wild wood, he hears a terrifying Raaarr and discovers the Scariest Thing of All . . .
