Food Chain

A delightfully tongue and cheek story which follows an extraordinary sequence of events set in motion by a naughty boy throwing a goldfish down the lavatory.

"Vibrant and bold there is sufficient detail in each illustration to generate lots of related chat." Sarah Doyle, parent. - Church Times

"This book is very funny. I made my big sister read it to me again and again. I like the naughty boy." Clara Belle, aged 4. - Church Times

Told effectively through simple text, with just a few choice words on each page, but it's the quirky and sometimes gruesome illustrations that make this book a winner… The pictures are large and colourful so this would be a great book to share with the whole class, but it's also one that the children, especially boys, will want to pick up and explore for themselves, again and again. And while purists might argue that it's not strictly scientific, this is a superb book to introduce the concept of food chains in a fun and engaging way. - Child Education

This wonderfully illustrated book captures the most amazing expressions on the faces of the fish. The reader will want to linger on each page to enjoy the witty, ironic, baleful and often terrified faces of the fish as they are caught in tricky situations under the sea. - INIS

Every picture on every page is packed with detail and each should be capable of opening up discussions on subjects from fossils to fishing - and to sewage! - Nursery World

Shortlisted: This witty book with colourful and often dramatic illustrations also has a clever storyline which is woven around information about the food chain. A must for any school. - English 4-11 Book Awards
