Discover the hilarious stories behind the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, and Santa Claus, straight from Troll's top secret files. Troll takes you through the secrets behind the stories you think you know. For instance, rather than just one Easter Bunny there are 418 rabbits secretly trained in the ancient art of egg-fu. The tooth fairy doesn't look as good in a tutu as you might think either, although he's really a very nice chap.Santa's helpers might not be as elvish as you'd expected (maybe they're a bit more on the automated side?).Explore the clever, funny takes on these legends from award-winning children's author Michelle Worthington, with imaginative illustrations by artist Jasmine Berry.

Trolls Tall Tales

‘When Daddy told me I was getting a new playmate, I was so EXCITED!I wouldn’t mind too much if it was a puppy. Or a little chick. Or maybe a bunny. But I hope it’s a dinosaur – I love dinosaurs!’As Mum’s tummy gets bigger and bigger, a little girl dreams about what could possibly be growing inside…A picture book from Ashling Kwok and illustrated by Jasmine Berry. The perfect book for those expecting new additions to their family!

Where's My Dinosaur?

The jungle bully is a textless big book dealing with the subject of bullying.A small monkey is bullied by other monkeys in his community and, feeling sad, runs away to be by himself. Seeing a group of happy animals, he decides to take his frustrations out on a harmless gorilla, and does this while the gorilla’s friends are distracted or sleeping. Although much bigger than the monkey, the gorilla doesn’t retaliate; but rather than remain silent, he finds his friends and tells them what happened to him. The animals decide to confront the monkey and talk about what he did to their friend. The monkey, now realising the gorilla has a support network, appears worried about what they will do to him. The animals give the monkey a chance to tell his side of the story and are saddened by what they hear. The gorilla and monkey are left to discuss how they can move forward and how the gorilla and his friends can support the monkey. They come up with a plan where all the animals can work together so they can all enjoy the jungle and keep the monkey safe.Textless big books are a wonderful way to build oral language skills and provide an easy transition into more formalised reading.The jungle bully is a beautifully-illustrated textless big book dealing with the subject of bullying.
