Puddling! cover

Clouds gather, skies darken, rain drops, puddles appear… Let’s go puddling!

Pull on your wellies and button up your coats for this playful, interactive story all about children delighting in the joy of splish-splash-sploshing in muddy puddles with their friends, and cherishing snuggles on the sofa afterwards. Emma Perry's debut on the Walker list encapsulates the joy of being outside whatever the weather, and is paired perfectly with Claire Alexander's watercolour artwork to recreate splashing puddles and raindrops!

Featured in October Previews -- Charlotte Eyre * The Bookseller *
Puddling! captures all the joy of splashing around in puddles with friends through bold typography, phonics and onomatopoeia. The text is expertly crafted by Emma Perry, and coupled with exuberant illustrations by Claire Alexander. * CLPE *
This is a book that you’ll enjoy reading even on a sunny day! Emma Perry’s words are rhythmical and extremely fun to read aloud, which match perfectly with the expressive watercolours of Claire Alexander. * My Book Corner *
