Don't Look At It! Don't Touch It!
What do you do when you're told not to do something? You do it anyway, of course! But when four friends mysteriously go missing one by one, has their curiosity got the better of them? A delightfully spooky picture book that's perfect for families at Halloween.
When four children wake up one morning to find a box which reads 'Don't look at it, don't touch it, don't open it!', what do you think they do? A Halloween-themed title with text that is screaming to be read aloud, this picture book is reminiscent of bestseller Funnybones in its repetition, with suspense-building, page-turning humour throughout. Fun, vibrant and nostalgic artwork by the highly acclaimed artist Roland Garrigue makes sure this becomes a classic in its own right - and can be read time and time again.
