From the creator of Kipper, this picture book shows that it is what’s inside that matters.

Wibbly Pig has a new friend – a bear so BIG, he can hardly fit on the page. He does not know how to brush his teeth or comb his hair and he can’t even use a spoon. But Wibbly loves him just the same!

A heart-warming story about loving friends for who they are from the award winning Mick Inkpen.

The latest Wibbly Pig story maintains the subtle simplicity of what has become a favourite character series, this time offering a touchingly heartfelt message: that being kind and fun is just as valid as being clever and co-ordinated.... expressive illustrations... The humorous text has a pleasing rhythm to it, with emphasised words on each page that children will delight in shouting out, as this is one story they will surely be learning off by heart.
