Packed with humour and adorably funny animal characters, The Messy Book is the perfect story for anyone who has ever been told to tidy their room. This is a story with a positive message of working together and friendship. It’s a fresh and innovative concept, with a surprise design twist! The illustrations have been pieced together with piles of colours and shapes, keeping the mess in order to reveal a beautiful story.
With hilarious writing from Maudie Powell-Tuck and
characterful illustrations from Richard Smythe (Beep Beep Beep Time For Sleep!), The Messy Book is perfect to inspire crafting activities.
When not writing, Maudie spends far too much of her time in expensive shops gawping at clothes and glittery things she can’t afford, and dreaming about owning a pug called Stanley. She’d love to say that she runs marathons - but that would be a lie.
Richard Smythe lives near Tunbridge Wells with his wife and dog. He loves drawing and has been scribbling away since he was a tiny boy – often covering his sister’s homework with his ‘masterpieces’, much to her annoyance. Richard loves to tell stories with his illustrations, especially if they involve animals and silly things.
In August comes a mysterious sound in the middle of the night, with The Great AAA-OOO by Jonny Lambert (£10.99 hbk)
As Mouse scampers homewards through the dark, rackety wood, he hears an awful AAA-OOO! What could be making that horrible howl? Could it be Owl, Moose, Bear or Goose? Or could it be…a monster?
In July, Little Tiger Press publishes The Messy Book by Maudie Powell-Tuck & Richard Smythe (£10.99 hbk)
Cat has made a mess and she won’t tidy up. No matter how many times Dog asks her. Can Dog convince her to tidy up this very messy book?
