Description
Come along catch a Heffalump
Sit with me on a muddy clump
We'll sing a song of days gone by . . .
Set sail on a timeless adventure with two rabbits determined not to get caught by the Hum-drum. Together, they discover a world of borogoves, slithy toves and Heffalumps, ready to dance and sing 'til sundown.
Packed with nonsensical whimsy and anarchic joy, this book is a merry romp through the imaginative worlds of Edward Lear and Lewis Carroll.
SO... Come along! Get you gone and have some fun!
"A glorious tumble of words and images - a joyful, foot-tapping, spirit-zinging extravagant gallivant of a story that torrents off the tongue and lifts the heart!" - Robert Macfarlane
"A delicious, rolling adventure through a magical world inhabited by humdrums, heffalumps, and rare type specimens. This book nourishes me with its nonsense and makes my spirit sing." - Merlin Sheldrake, author of Entangled Life.
Come Along and discover a joyous debut picture book, rooted in the whimsical tradition of nonsense literature, and based on the viral hit sensation song.
