Product Description

Product Description
Skipping home is a piece of cake, When you've got your very own skipping-rope snake! What can a little girl do in the jungle? Play snap with a crocodile? Join-the-dots on a leopard's spots? Pin-the-tail on an elephant? Or just pick up a snake and skip all the way home! With its irresistible rhyme and jungly illustrations, this is a joyful, anarchic picture book from the author and illustrator of QUEEN MUNCH AND QUEEN NIBBLE.

4.0 out of 5 stars Delightful story for toddlers, 18 Aug 2004
Beautifully illustrated story for toddlers, featuring recurring bugs on each page and rhythmic rhymes. My 2 1/2 year old loves finding the animals, bouncing up and down to the rhythms and saying "Goodbye" to all the animals as the little girl leaves the jungle - "Goodbye rhino. Goodbye lemurs." and so on.
Amusing for the adults too!
