Nibbles the book monster is very hungry, and in Nibbles: The Very Hungry Book Monster, he has found his way into a library! Oh no! Which of our favourite fairy tales and nursery rhymes is he going to chew through this time?

Find out from author and illustrator Emma Yarlett about the cutest book-nibbling monster Nibbles, who shares the first few pages with us in this short video.


Read our Q&A with Emma Yarlett to find out how Nibbles 're-writes' fairy tales and nursery rhymes when he chews through them, how the little monster can help inspire a love of stories, and how these adventures can help young readers themselves to create their own mixed-up fairy tales.


Review:  "There is so much for little children to enjoy as they follow Nibbles, peeking through die cut holes, lifting flaps and following trails of footprints."  Sue
