Zoom! cover

Hurricane Kieron and Rusharound Ria are always in a hurry. They never walk anywhere. They always run!

They go zzzzooooommm, zigga zigga, yow, yow, yow, wheeeeeeee all day long!

But when Hurricane Kieron falls over, he can’t rush around any more. But with paints and brushes, can he find another way to make hurricanes instead? Even if it does involve sitting still…

A delightful story about running around, sitting still, and the joys of both.

‘A noisy book that celebrated the fun of charging around, while gently encouraging quiet, creative play. Full of the sort of detail children love; bright, exuberant pictures, short sentences, lots of repetition and whooping noises to imitate.’
The Independent

‘This stylised, multi-cultural picture book is fille with boundless energy and a sense of fun. The bold, colourful, alternative style of artwork will make this book leap off the shelf, with illustrations that fizzle with energy and perfectly mirror the lively story. Perfect for children aged two to five.’
The Malta Independent
