This
rhyming book for pre-schoolers and early readers is an imaginative pictorial
fantasy which explores the landscape of belly-buttons!
Tummy Holes is about innies and
outies, navels and holes. Dad’s belly button is a deep forested cave; cousin’s
(which has a sparkling belly ring) is a ruby-crusted treasure trove guarded by
a troll; mum’s is a windy mountain peak and the dog’s is a theatre with a
performing flea!
Why
don’t frogs or lizards have belly-buttons? Or chooks? The answer is in this
book. Warm, soothing illustrations complement a rhyming, repetitive text.
