| WIBBLE WOBBLE Illustrated by Joanna Mockler |
|
| All William wants in the whole world is a wobbly tooth. Wobbly teeth can be fun, but losing them is no fun at all, as William discovers. Suddenly it pops out one day at school, but how will William keep it safe?
Winner of the Experian Big Three Book Award (Now the Nottingham Book Award) 2003. Sheffield Book Award Commended Picture Book. Miriam Moss's simple story of the loss of that first tooth marks an early rites of passage with a humour one might call almost crunchy: all the little urgencies of childhood are compressed into it's pages.
Joanna Mocklar's illustrations are in the tradition of Quentin Blake: bright, jaunty, just a tad anarchic.. With unadorned yet comically lurid prose
Moss seems to channel the six-year-old mindset. Children thoroughly enjoyed sharing William's toothsome experiences in this brightly illustrated, funny story. Orchard, 2001 P/b ISBN 1-84121-086-2 |
