Age 3+. This is one of the loveliest picture books that's been published in 2011 to share with your toddler. In the extraordinary adventures of the King of Quizzical Island, the King decides he must prove to his citizens that the world is round. So he begins to dig and meets all manner of creatures on the way. The rhyming text written by Gordon Snell, husband of the novelist Maeve Binchy, is superb and complimented perfectly by David McKee's quirky illustrations.
Through rhyming text the King of Quizzical Island begins to dig a tunnel so deep that it will take him to the other side of the world. His quest leads him right down into the heart of the earth where he encounters all kinds of mysterious and mythical creatures, including the Monarch of Calcium, a huge Giant and a Dinosaur and Dragon perched in two large armchairs. Will he make it to the other side?
