Description

On an extraordinary journey to the sea, a tiger boards the train, along with a jungle of other animals - all without Dad even looking up from his phone! From debut author, Mariesa Dulak, and award-winner Rebecca Cobb, illustrator of The Everywhere Bear.

You'll never guess what happened
On our trip down to the sea . . .
A tiger in a top hat
Came and sat right next to me!

Off to the seaside they go on a rather . . . EXTRAORDINARY train journey. But will Dad ever look up from his phone?

A boy and his dad board the train. Dad is stuck into his phone and misses the fact that a tiger boards the train too . . . and so does a family of hippos, and a band of crocs, and a mum with her piglets, and a pug in a boa - or two . . .

On the way to the seaside pandemonium ensues, and then the tiger roars . . . Has he finally had enough?
And what will Dad say? Will he even notice?

About this Author

Mariesa Dulak was born in Yorkshire of dual heritage (Barbadian/White British). Her Dad taught her how to hold a cricket bat, prune roses and master long division while her Mum fed her a nutritious diet of Fairy tales, Pam Ayres and Yorkshire puddings. A love of bookish things led to a degree in English literature, an MA in Children's Literature and a career in publishing. The GEA helped Mariesa turn her scribbles into stories - she now writes picture books about identity and family life. Mariesa is a Primary School Librarian and lives with her family in West London.

Rebecca Cobb works as a picture book illustrator and writer. As well as illustrating her own books, she has also illustrated works by authors, including Julia Donaldson, Helen Dunmore, Richard Curtis, Nicola Davies and Katherine Woodfine. Rebecca won the Waterstones Children's Book Prize with Lunchtime, and she has been shortlisted for the prestigious CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal three times.
