Keen to help his distraught friend, Pip offers Posy a range of different toys to substitute for her frog, including his own favourite frog money box The Little Puddle Pip and Posy are best friends – they love to play, and make things, and have fun. But just occasionally they get cross or sad, and sometimes things go wrong that are beyond their control. And that’s when kindness and understanding – and a cuddle – make everything better. In The Little Puddle, Pip comes to play at Posy’s house. The friends have such a fun time playing that Pip forgets he needs to go to the loo, and soon there’s a little puddle on the floor. But everyone has accidents sometimes, so Posy mops it up, and lends him some clothes. The next time Pip needs a wee, he does it in the potty all by himself. The Super Scooter Pip and Posy are best friends – they love to play, and make things, and have fun. But just occasionally they get cross or sad, and sometimes things go wrong that are beyond their control. And that’s when kindness and understanding – and a cuddle – make everything better. In Pip and Posy and the Super Scooter, Posy snatches Pip’s scooter and tries to ride it. Unfortunately, it’s harder than it looks and she falls off, giving herself a nasty cut. Though Pip was very cross, he comes running to help Posy in her moment of need, giving her a plaster for her sore knee. Posy apologises to Pip, and together they build a sandcastle in the sandpit, where it’s nice and soft. The Scary Monster When Pip comes to Posy's house wearing a scary monster mask, he gives Posy a bit of a fright! Oh, dear! But when she works out it's only Pip, she feels much better, and they share the biscuits she's made. Hooray The Snowy Day Pip and Posy can't wait to go out and play in the snow. They have fun, until they decide to build a snowman and things start to go pear-shaped. Pip wants to build a snowRABBIT but Posy wants a snowMOUSE! Oh dear! Happily they resolve their differences over a cosy craft session indoors. The Christmas Tree It's Christmas time and Pip and Posy are busy decorating the tree with candy sticks, and biscuits, and a beautiful sugar star. But the strange thing is that, every time Posy goes out of the room, when she returns, there's one less decoration on the tree. Eventually, there are NO decorations left AT ALL . . . oh, dear! All young readers will enjoy the moment when Posy finds Pip lying on the sofa, feeling sick, but will they guess how she decides to tackle Pip? A charming and funny new Pip and Posy story from the illustrator of The Gruffalo, Axel Scheffler, about the problems caused by telling fibs, with gentle lessons about being kind and tooth-brushing! Review: great books - this was a great set my grandson loved them! Review: GREAT books. Not board books - just board covers. - We absolutely love these books for our 1+ year old. They're so sweet, every book has a little conflict where the two kids end up learning how to be nice to one another. Teaches great lessons for dealing with conflict or accidents. Illustrations are great. We bought this set because it said board book, but they are not board books - just board covers. The pages are thick paper however, so sturdy if your kid has learned good manners with pages and won't tear easily.
