Want your Christmas dinner on time? Then don’t let a wildebeest into the kitchen.
There’s more invaluable, and hilarious advice where this came from, delivered across double pages in the sharpest rhyming text and in David Tazzyman’s wildly energetic illustrations. A new classic in this hugely popular series.
… delightfully brought to life with David Tazzyman’s quirky illustrations and a jaunty rhyming text. You will laugh out loud as tigers ride on trains, whales ride on bikes and giraffes go on aeroplanes * Publishers Association on YOU CAN’T TAKE AN ELEPHANT ON THE BUS *
The bold, caricature-style illustrations, rhyming couplets and varying font styles add to the humour * Practical Pre-School on YOU CAN’T TAKE AN ELEPHANT ON THE BUS *
