A funny and uplifting story about never giving up, from award-winning comedian Olaf Falafel.
Dave has got a tricky job to do. He needs to roll an ENORMOUS ball of dung up a very steep hill. Dave will need to summon all of his beetle strength to get the job done, but with many obstacles along the way, he must also find his inner strength. A hilarious and touching picture-book story about resilience and positive-thinking, perfect for sharing with young readers.
From the award-winning creator of Blobfish, winner of the Queen's Knickers Award and the Children's Book Award for Younger Children.
