This fold out board-book from the author of Rhyme Cordial and Rhyme Hungry is delightfully surprising and surprisingly funny.
It’s PARTY RHYME!
Put on your PARTY BAT,
enjoy the LIZZIE DRINKS,
but don’t eat too much HAIRY BREAD!
As the name suggests, this book contains delightful
jokes and puns, witty rhymes and playful language.
Standard party foods are laid out looking very shiny and delicious, only to be replaced on the secret fold out page by crazily funny and equally enticing (but perhaps not always delicious!) rhyming foods.
Without giving too much away, suffice to say that after
making a guess and then flipping a flap, Fairy Bread becomes Hairy Bread. Think
about that - but not for too long!
The illustrations are bold, cheerful and chunky, seeming
to pop off the page in the perfect way. Primarily primary colours (look at me
getting into the playful wordish vibe) are punctuated with a variety of others,
to become a literal feast for the eyes.
I can already feel the chuckles that this book will
elicit at story-time, or at party-time – or even at bed-time if you’re game!
A perfect gift or fun-filled interlude for the littles in your life.
