Tickle

by Roger Hargreaves · 1971

The Tickle Book is a lively board‑book for ages 2‑5 that invites little readers to pull tabs, lift flaps and slide push‑buttons as they follow the mischievous Ticklemonster on his quest to tickle animal friends—from pigs on the farm to penguins at the zoo. Written in witty rhyming verse by award‑winning author Ian Whybrow and illustrated by Axel Scheffler (co‑creator of The Gruffalo), each page bursts with funny details and interactive elements that encourage giggles and tactile play. Part of the Tom and Bear series, the book combines a playful storyline with sensory engagement, making it a perfect bedtime or read‑aloud adventure.
