Ten Delicious Teachers cover

An irreverent and zany counting book that is gently thrilling and written in a deliciously infectious rhyme with witty and whimsical illustrations.

Ten silly teachers have missed the last bus home. But LOOK – a shortcut through the forest! They'll be back in time for tea! Off they skip, unaware that in the woods a hungry horde of mischievous and hilariously goofy monsters is waiting… An irreverent and zany counting book that is gently thrilling with witty and whimsical illustrations.

a comic countdown chant. This rhyming story is great fun to read aloud… Fabulously drawn by Sarah Warburton... Enormous fun... essentially a serial-killing spree with a jolly denouement * The Times *
Perfect for the school summer holidays […] The vivid illustrations are packed with witty detail, the rhyming story bounces along with great pace and there’s a very funny twist at the end. A great way to learn numbers while laughing out loud. * The Daily Mail & The Scottish Daily Mail *
Funny and irreverent, it’s easy to imagine this one being a huge hit at school storytime. * The Guardian *
A wonderful, laugh-out-loud way to learn numbers and counting, get ready for school and wind up these last few days of summer. * Mary Esther Judy, Fallen Star Stories *
