Toad Rage
by Morris Gleitzman
Limpy the cane toad cannot understand why humans run his relatives over, and sets off for the Olympics to make toads popular.
A story about animals, funny and wry in tone. We would put it with children of 8–11, and at a reading age of about 9 for reading alone.

Or let them write their own.
Nothing gets a child reading like a story they invented themselves. Your child plans the characters and the plot, and we write, illustrate and print it as a real book with their name on the cover as the author.
