Somebody Swallowed Stanley

Somebody Swallowed Stanley Synopsis

"Plastic bags don't belong in the sea!"

• As read by Tom Hardy on Cbeebies Bedtime Stories

Everybody has a taste for Stanley - and the other ocean creatures just keep mistaking him for a delicious treat - but this is no ordinary jellyfish.

Most jellyfish have dangly-gangly tentacles, but Stanley has two handles…

Other jellyfish have a magical glow, but Stanley has stripes…

Because Stanley (spoiler alert) is a plastic bag!

A beautifully illustrated picture book with a powerful message about plastic pollution from environmental expert Sarah Roberts.

• The perfect gift to introduce children to the issues of plastic in our oceans
• Brilliant for teachers to read to children in class when introducing them to pollution issues
