Overview

As every year, Bunny looks forward to parking her camper van in a perfect spot, and enjoying her usual routine of relaxing amongst nature – on her own. To her horror, she wakes up to find a noisy purple monster camped right next door! At first she is delighted when a storm blows away his tent, but then she can’t help but take pity on his plight, and gradually realises that doing things together can be more fun than solitude.

'Fitzgerald’s words and illustrations bring humour and wisdom to a very human dilemma and underline – in a most entertaining way! –the importance of tolerance, harmony and understanding.' - Lancashire Evening Post ‘A fun story about being open to new experiences and friendships, and learning that differences are to be enjoyed.’ - Books for Keeps 'Brian Fitzgerald’s thought-provoking, funny and sensitive story challenges 3+ year-olds to stop and think, and it will remind both children and adults that sometimes the best experiences come from unplanned events. Highly recommended.' School Reading List 'A sweet story about the importance of going with the flow and getting out of your comfort zone – you never know what might happen when you try something new! With beautifully calm illustrations, readers are reminded of how kindness and friendship bring colour to a lonely world.'  - Children's Books Ireland ‘A change of heart leads to an enriching, fun-filled friendship.’ - The Times, Ireland: The best Irish children's books to put under the tree 'The illustrations are full of humour and whilst the message is simple, the text does not talk down to children and uses great vocabulary, exactly what I love in a picture book. A real triumph … the combination of the message and the humour is just perfect.' - Reading Zone ‘There is so much here for very young readers to enjoy and discuss with an adult. The author’s pictures are beautiful, with his use of colour adding hugely to the messages that the book conveys, making this a great book to share in school to spark some great PSHE work on kindness, difference and inclusion.' - World's Smallest Library 'A cheerful, upbeat picture book with kindness at its core.' - A Library Lady 'It’s a book that encourages you to look and look again. From vignettes to full bleeds to sudden chaos, there is a lovely sense of movement and expression... A great read to encourage discussion about how important it is not to judge people on first impressions.' - Good Night to Read 'Readers will recognise their own preferences and choices in this vibrantly illustrated picture book, which will please FS/Year 1 audiences, generate discussion and encourage empathy.'
