Meet the magnificent marvellous magical BOTTOM.
Bottoms are brill, bottoms are ace, bottoms are top of the tree . . . well, actually technically they’re bottom. But they’re VERY important! Where would we be without bottoms?
Could we sit without a bottom? NO.
Could we run without a bottom? NO.
Could we poo without a bottom? Probably not.
But who in the animal kingdom has the biggest bottom? Or the furriest, or the slimiest, or the smelliest bottom? Take a wild ride through science, nature, evolution and more in this terrific tale of the mighty BOTTOM!
Saskia Gwinn has spent 20 years crafting beautiful books to inspire children of all ages. She lives in Hertfordshire with her two boys who hope dinosaurs will one day revisit Earth. In the meantime she tells them that every creature on the planet has an equally exciting story to tell.
Lee Cosgrove is a children’s illustrator from a small town on the banks of the River Mersey. A lifelong doodler, his love of drawing is inspired by a childhood of Saturday morning cartoons, den-building adventures and an endless supply of crayons. Working as a full time illustrator for the last 10 years Lee has enjoyed working on a wide range of projects from illustrating picture books, to board games to billboards. He loves to bring humour and lots of character to his illustrations.
