Get ready for giggles, wiggles and interactive fun with The Tickle Book: A Push Pull and Slide Book. Written by award-winning author Ian Whybrow and illustrated by Axel Scheffler (co-creator of The Gruffalo), this playful board book invites young children into a ticklish adventure with a mischievous Ticklemonster who’s off to tickle all his animal friends—from the pigs on the farm to the penguins at the zoo.
 
Every page features interactive tabs to push, pull or slide, so toddlers and preschoolers can be part of the action. Whether they’re pulling back a flap, sliding a tab to reveal a surprise, or watching a friend get tickled, the story makes reading active, joyful and engaging. 
 
Bright, bold illustrations packed with character detail bring the rhymes to life. With a strong read-aloud rhythm, it’s ideal for sharing: perfect for early readers who love sounds, movement and humour.
