Another big hit with the toddler in our house, much like his beloved "Pants" there are rhyming words aplenty, opportunities to tickle, giggle and point. Sam has a great sense of humour and loves to make children laugh with his writing, and seeing how incredible illustrators can bring his silliness to life on the page. Which is perfect because as the book get closer and closer to the end we are getting closer to a big DANCE finale!Chris Jevons is an award-winning children's book illustrator with a passion for character design and storytelling. I’m also working on several exciting picture books with Egmont and Hachette, including a new series written by Peter Bently! I was given some amusing feedback from my designer: ‘The mammoth’s bum looks a bit too much like testicles! When I visited my Grandparents, they always saved the cardboard from cereal packets, just in case I ran out of paper!
