Don't know what to pick for story time? Your 2 year old will love one of these...
By Jonny Duddle, published by Templar, RRP £5.99
What’s the story: A salty sea pup tells the tale of a mysterious island, bursting with pirate booty. Captain Purplebeard and his cut-throat crew have already set sail in search of the treasure before they’re made aware of the hideous pirate cruncher who guards the gold.
Why we love it: Appealing to the child and adult who love a jolly adventure, Duddle’s drawings are packed with so much to see. Searching for the hidden tentacle in the corner of a page, and a pair of googly eyes peeking over a chest of gold on the next makes the book an ‘I spy a monster’ game. There’s plenty of text too to keep the story going.
