Cranes on trains? Goats on boats? Dragons on wagons?

Join in the fun with a host of colourful animals as they ride, soar, whizz and zoom on a whole range of exciting vehicles … from tigers on gliders to ducks on trucks. Add to that a text to read aloud to the tune of 'The Wheels on the Bus' and … What a combination!

The whales on the bus ride round the town,
Round the town, round the town.
The whales on the bus ride round the town,
All day long!

Jam-packed with things on wheels and a whole lot of crazy creatures, this zany adventure provides endless fun for fans of planes, trains, cars, buses and animals of all kinds!

Little ones will love singing along to the tune of a favourite nursery rhyme, with bold, colourful illustrations by the instantly recognisable Nick Sharratt and text by the talented Katrina Charman.

“I HAD to get my hands on this. My daughter is 18 months old and she absolutely loves Car, Car, Truck, Jeep, so I couldn't wait to read this one to her. She loves it. It's a brilliant and funny reimagining of a classic nursery rhyme ... The rhyme is easy to follow and funny, and as always the illustrations are great. Big, bright and bold colours and drawings that compliment the book well. I loved it and she loved it”
– NetGalley reviewer

“Just like Car, Car, Truck, Jeep this book is a lot of fun to read aloud! My children joined in from the second line of each page and loved laughing at all the crazy scenarios ... Sharratt's artwork is bright and bold with his signature style. The story has a gentle, sleepy feel to the last two pages, making this story perfect for before bed, or as a pre nap-time read at home or nursery. We loved this story and would definitely recommend it”
– NetGalley reviewer

Katrina Charman

Katrina has spent her life surrounded by books ever since her first visit to the library when she was tiny. She now lives in a house full of bookshelves fit to bursting, and continues to fill them with books that she has written.

She recently won Booktrust's Story Time prize for her and Nick Sharratt's picture book The Whales on the Bus.

When she's not writing for children, she is cuddled up with one of her fluffy cats and a good book, or plucking cat hairs off her clothes.
