Description

Using the strange names and often stranger appearance of animals, this funny, rhyming, read-aloud picture book, will amuse both children and parents and perhaps inspired a few poets in the making. Kes believes children's books should be a happy marriage between a great idea and a very talented illustrator: demonstrated perfectly by his partnership with Jim Field. We use Clarity+ glazing which is a high-quality acrylic glass alternative, offering high UV resistance which doesn't yellow over time, is not easily scratched and is safe for use in children's bedrooms. The Oi series have quickly become bedtime favourites for us and I often choose it for them/me if they pause in choosing too long. He sat reading aloud and laughing at some of the rhymes - he reads it over and over and gets so much enjoyment for it.

In addition to being an award-winning illustrator, Jim is a character designer and animation director, working across a variety of projects including music videos and title sequences to advertising and picture books. He has won the Sainsbury's Children's Book Award and the Laugh Out Loud Book Award and has been shortlisted for the British Book Awards.Loved by children and parents, the books have won numerous awards, including the Laugh Out Loud Picture Book Award, and been shortlisted for many more! His first picture book, ‘Cats Ahoy’ written by Peter Bently won the Booktrust Roald Dahl Funny Prize in 2011.

Laugh-aloud humour which will have young readers in fits of giggles - and improve their rhyming ability, too. Here is a library of books created by a community of parents and children where you can browse books that others have enjoyed and recommended. And Kookaburras and hippopotamuses and all the other animals with impossible to rhyme with names… Over to you Frog! We read it last night for the first time (reward for our reward rocket chart as per my other reviews), and had a giggle.

The print is framed by hand in Cambridgeshire in the UK, using only European sourced PEFC™ and FSC approved woods.

Jim has won multiple awards for the children's books he has illustrated; including the Lollies, The Roald Dahl Funny Prize, The Evening Standards Oscars Prize and The Sainsbury's Award. Never read any of the oi series, home schooling an the school sent a video of the teacher reading a book (oi frog). Jim’s debut author-illustrator picture book ‘Monsieur Roscoe - On Holiday’ is a bilingual book that introduces first French words to young children and is now available in 12 countries. Jim has illustrated children's books with Kes Gray, Rachel Bright, Julian Gough, Michelle Robinson, Michael Broad, Jeanne Willis, Steve Cole, comedian David Baddiel and Sir Michael Morpurgo.

Loved by children and parents, the books have won numerous awards, including the Laugh Out Loud Picture Book Award, and been shortlisted for many more! Younger readers will love hearing the story and older ones will enjoy the challenge of trickier vocabulary in the book.

From music videos and title sequences to illustration and picture books, Jim has worked on a variety of projects. Loved by children and parents, the books have won numerous awards, including the Laugh Out Loud Picture Book Award , and been shortlisted for many more! Jim Field’s hilarious and boldly-coloured illustrations make for a striking collection of prints, perfect for nurseries or bedrooms.This book 'cheats' a bit, all the animals that you can't rhym anything with they just give a name instead that they can.
