The illustrations seem simple and uncluttered at first glance, but attentive little ones will soon spot cheery mice, birds and even a brightly coloured snake watching the action. And there's a lovely double-page spread tracing the two friends' journey which recalls all the thrills and spills they had on earlier days.
Stories about animals can be lots of fun, as children can identify with them and also discover something about their characteristics. Meet the endearing Penguin Blue, with his love of the sea, in [[Sunk! by Rob Biddulph]], and find out what's different about an owl's bedtime in [[10, 9, 8... Owls Up Late! by Georgiana Deutsch and Ekaterina Trukhan]]. Discover why some creatures might not be ideal pets in [[Have You Seen My Giraffe? by Michelle Robinson and Claire Powell]], and explore just what it is pandas do all day in [[Chengdu Can Do by Barney Saltzberg]]. Richard Watson also illustrated [[Mad in the Back by Michael Rosen and Richard Watson|Mad in the Back by Michael Rosen]]. Plenty of enjoyment and lots to talk about here!
