Find out in the hilarious new picture book from award-winning author, Sean Taylor.
Do you have a favourite snack? One you’ve been thinking about all day, and just can’t wait to tuck into? Well, our friend Natterjack Toad has a packet of delicious chocolate-chunk crunchy-munch cookies and he can’t wait to tuck in. So, he gets himself all nice and comfortable, ready to savour every last chocolatey bite – he reaches into the packet, he opens his mouth, and then … Natterjack Toad can’t believe it! Every time he tries to eat his cookies, there’s something in the way: a lanky heron, a frisky-whiskered weasel, a scurrying vole – all on the lookout for a (toady) snack themselves. Will he ever be able to eat his chocolate-chunk crunchy-munch cookies in peace?
