I Am Wriggly

The fourth in a funny new series from former Children’s Laureate Michael Rosen and rising star Robert Starling.

This bunny is wriggly. They wriggle round and round, they wriggle on the ground, they wave their feet and drum out a beat … they just can’t stop! This playful book captures the excitable energy of a child who just can’t sit still, joyfully moving from the familiar to the absurd – until they finally run out of steam. An exuberant read-aloud from master of rhyme Michael Rosen, coupled with bold and bouncing illustrations from Robert Starling, perfect for sharing with little ones.

The exuberance of the text and movement in the illustrations will appeal to all those kids who cannot sit still and those who would live to be spontaneous. The infectious words will be said over and over again, children trying them out, working out what they mean, enjoying the humour in their depiction by Robert Starling. ReadPlus
