Alison Hubble - Softcover

A story in verse in picture book format with lots of colourful, quirky illustrations and speech bubbles. It's a madcap, hilarious adventure about Alison who doubled overnight and became a twin. Later that day: 'She doubled again/In seconds flat/Like magical rabbits/From a conjuror's hat.' And so it continues until she fills the whole of Stoke on Trent! Plymouth five-year-olds, Eve, Niamh and William, loved it. 'Wow! There's so many of her she could fill all the seats in a train.' They had lots of questions and were curious to know how and why...
