Flip Flap Dogs
What do you get if you cross a Whippet with a Chihuahua? Why, that's obvious, it's a Whippihuahua! And how about a Beagle with a Poodle? That's a Boodle, of course!
With over 121 possible creations, silly names and strange noises to make you giggle, this Flip Flap book is perfect for preschoolers and ideal for animal fans. With a hilarious rhyming text and brilliant illustrations from Nikki Dyson, simply flip the pages to create some seriously silly mixed-up canines.
Nikki grew up in the countryside in a small village called Shrivenham in Oxfordshire. Nikki studied for her illustration degree in Swindon and since graduating in 2006 has illustrated books for children including 1,000 Animals, 1,000 Things to Eat, How to be a Superhero and How to be a Pirate.
Nikki spent a lot of her childhood drawing, reading and making mud pies in the garden. To this day she still does the same but gets paid for it too, which is lovely, and you'll be pleased to hear the mud pie business is still going strong. Nikki loves creating characters for stories and is hugely inspired by animation and concept artists especially. One of her favourite cartoons is Looney Tunes' Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner - "Beep, Beep!"
