"Joyful, positive stories starring tiny little eco-warriors, the Tindims"
Interest Age 5+ Reading Age 5 | Selected for The Book Box by LoveReading4Kids
Something like nautical Borrowers, the Tindims live on a floating island, gathering, reusing and recycling what people throw away. When Bottle Mountain gets too big and slides off the island, it knocks Granny Gull’s house into the sea and with it Captain Spoons and Broom. With typical ingenuity, the Tindims prepare a rescue mission even as the captain and Broom are being lifted out of the ocean by Long Legs (ie adult humans).
While the rescue doesn’t go quite according to plan, everything works out, in particular the meeting with the Long Legs and their Little Long Legs. Children will love the Tindims and their world. These little people are both wise and innocent, delighting in poetry, song and jam-making as well as their recycling.
Printed in an easy-to-read dyslexia-friendly font and with Lydia Corry’s gorgeous illustrations on every page, the stories are perfect for newly independent readers.
Printed in dyslexia-friendly font with pictures on every page and perfect for the reluctant reader.
On the Tindims' island home, Bottle Mountain is growing terrifyingly tall with rubbish. So tall that one night it breaks away. Across the ocean, a boy discovers Bottle Mountain bobbing by the seashore. For the first time ever the Tindims are discovered and get to meet the Long Legs and Little Legs. Can the Tindims and the humans help each other to save the planet?
