ABOUT THE GIANT JUMPEREE

Two of the world’s most celebrated picture book creators, Julia Donaldson and Helen Oxenbury, team up for the first time in this jaunty animal fable for fans of Room on the Broom and We’re Going on a Bear Hunt.

Rabbit arrives home one day to hear a loud voice coming from inside his burrow: “I’m the Giant Jumperee and I’m scary as can be!” shouts the stranger.

Rabbit’s friends Cat, Bear, and Elephant come to help, but they’re no match for the mysterious, booming voice. But who is the Giant Jumperee? Find out in this new read-aloud classic from internationally bestselling author Julia Donaldson, beautifully brought to life by award-winning illustrator Helen Oxenbury.

Sometimes we are afraid of things that are not even scary! 

Is your child scared of things sometimes? Have a read of this article by Julia Donaldson. She is a wonderful children’s author from the U.K.

This is a great bedtime read when your child is scared of the dark!

Thank you for the bag donations we have received. Our school community must be very environmentally aware! We still need more bags for students who forget their library bags. We need to look after our precious library books. They are a treasure.
