"If You give the Puffin a Muffin" - a bookwrap










Everyone's favourite Puffin is back!  I totally love this little guy with his attitude and sassiness.  He always makes me laugh and I am sure kids will relate to him and have a good giggle too!  Another winner by this creative author/illustrator.

About the book




Ohhhhhh boy Puffin is back and he's ticked!  He is trying to relax and read his favourite book but is interrupted by an offer to have a muffin.  

"No thank you, puffins don't eat muffins",  he says politely.

The offer persists and Puffin becomes more adamant in his response.

"I said, NO THANK YOU puffins eat fish, squid, and sand eels, not muffins." 

And then the light bulb comes on and Puffin realizes that this is a ploy to get him involved in another stupid old picture book and he wants none of that again.  He finally reaches his boiling point and stomps off.  Puffin has had it and he needs to head for the hills... RIGHT NOW!!!!  

In order to make his getaway he seeks help from previous books characters and some nostalgic characters from other well-known kid classics.  How fun is that?  

Can angry little Puffin find a portal to peace and sanity and be left alone?  

I adore Timothy Young's books. I think we have the same sense of humour. His books are witty and full of emotion, humour and most of all.... fun.  The illustrations are crisp, clear and a perfect marriage to the storyline.  I highly recommend this book and all his other ones too.  They are reading treats.
