Choosing Crumble

When Terri-Lee goes to the pet-shop she thinks she’ll be choosing a dog – she doesn’t expect the dog to be choosing her! But Crumble is no ordinary pet and he’s got a few questions to ask:
How many walks will you take me on?
Do you like to dance?
Will you tickle me? I like that a lot.

Will Terri-Lee’s dance moves and answers be enough to convince Crumble that she could be his owner?

Reviews

  • "Rosen's hilarious text sits perfectly here with Ross's scratchy style in this cracking little book that joins two superstars of children's literature… A perfect example of how even an early reader book could become a family favourite"
