THUMP THUMP. The Red Dread is on the loose and Shrew and the other animals are afraid... Witty, lively and gently thought-provoking, this debut picture book from inky genius Tom Morgan-Jones about a group of animals and the unseen monster in their midst will have readers laughing out loud.
THUMP THUMP. The Red Dread is on the loose and Shrew and the other animals are afraid. From stolen nuts to missing rabbits, they whisper of the terrible actions of the Red Dread. As panic increases, logic and team spirit evaporate and soon it's every creature for itself. Told entirely in dialogue, this quirky read-aloud tale plays out in sly illustrations brimming with brilliant visual humour.
The energy Tom injects into his drawings is enough to power an army of industrial toasters for a week - Philip Ardagh; A spooky wee tale with lots of heart - Ross Collins; Brimming with visual humour and a lively pace, the dialogue-led text is perfect to read aloud. - The Bookseller
