At last, a book to celebrate scootermania! A variety of kids and scooters glide across the pages, depicted in Jim Smith’s instantly recognisable, bright, cartoony illustrations. Katie Blackburn’s rhyming text sets up all sorts of scooter scenarios, and each page has a different scooter adventure, from ‘sunny day’ and ‘caught in a shower’, to ‘covered in stickers’ and ‘flower power’. It’s huge fun to look at and to read out loud. One, two, three, Scoot! ~Andrea Reece
From the illustrator of the award winning Barry Loser series and the author of Where the Wild Mums Are, comes this hilarious picture book, crammed to bursting with scooters. Drawn in Jim's bright trademark style and with a joyful rhyming text from Katie, this is sure to be a hit with all young scooter riders.
Katie Blackburn is the author of Where the Wild Mums Are, and Where the Wild Dads Went, two humorous homages to Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are. She has also written two Dozy Bear adventures, Dozy Bear and The Secret of Sleep, which helps children to fall asleep, and which received rave reviews from C4's Three Day Nanny, Kathryn Mewes, and a clinical hypnotherapist and Dozy Bear and the Secret of Food, coming in June 2017. Katie lives in London with her husband and young child.
