Tiddler

Every day, Tiddler is late for school, and every day he has another
tall tale for his teacher. But did he really ride a seahorse?
Did he really meet a mermaid? And who will believe him when he really
does get captured in a net?

"Picture-book perfection ... It's got laughs, drama and great rhymes."

I wriggled and I struggled till a turtle came and rescued me."
