“A collection of humorous rhyming stories featuring some very strange beasts as imagined by author Kevin Price and brought to life by artist Robin Carter”.
This ambitious book pays homage to the Roald Dahl classics, ‘Dirty Beasts’ and ‘Revolting Rhymes’.
The creatures are The Booger Fish, The Hungry Hippocrocopus, The Shrieking Hoolie Boolie Bird, The Incinerator Bee, The Chikimunki Marmoset and The Velociraptor Worm.
Funny, rude and gruesome in equal measure, ‘Curious Creatures’ is sure to amuse children from 7 to 107.
Sales of this book will help to raise funds for the children’s charity, East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices.
