Toddlers will love this delightfully entertaining but yucky pop-up (or plop up!) book but perhaps parents will enjoy it a little less although the humour is brilliantly portrayed in it.
It’s packed full of poos that plop, drop, splish, splosh and pop off the page. Poor mole is dumped on by someone but he doesn’t know who, so he sets of on a journey to find out. A timeless classic that is also available in paperback but this pop-up hardback edition definitely takes top spot for its novelty.
