The Skipping-Rope Snake

Author: Lydia Monks Carol Ann Duffy
Publisher: Pan Macmillan
Category: Storybooks, Poetry Books for Kids, Adventure Books for Kids
Age Group: 5-9
Book Format: Paperback

What can a little girl do in the jungle? Play snap with a crocodile? Join-the-dots on a leopard's spots? Pin-the-tail on an elephant? Or just pick up a snake and skip all the way home!

With its irresistible rhyme and jungly illustrations, this is a joyful, anarchic picture book from Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy and illustrator-extraordinaire Lydia Monks, illustrator of the bestselling What the Ladybird Heard. With a fresh new cover look, The Skipping-Rope Snake is livelier than ever.

Carol Ann Duffy, illustrated by Lydia Monks
