Ten Delicious Teachers

wonderfully irreverent counting rhyme; a playfully wicked back-to-school alternative * The Bookseller *a comic countdown chant. This rhyming story is great fun to read aloud… Fabulously drawn by Sarah Warburton… Enormous fun… essentially a serial-killing spree with a jolly denouement * The Times *Perfect for the school summer holidays […] The vivid illustrations are packed with witty detail, the rhyming story bounces along with great pace and there’s a very funny twist at the end. A great way to learn numbers while laughing out loud. * The Daily Mail & The Scottish Daily Mail *Funny and irreverent, it’s easy to imagine this one being a huge hit at school storytime. * The Guardian *A wonderful, laugh-out-loud way to learn numbers and counting, get ready for school and wind up these last few days of summer. * Mary Esther Judy, Fallen Star Stories *
