Bronnie is so lovely with the boys and we also felt that having a man enthusing about the books set a great example. This book invites interaction with the story and plenty of action and noise as Alan makes his way through the jungle and on to a new identity.

It’s true that they keep things in the jungle running exactly as Alan’s always wanted them, with everyone doing as he bids.I have even talked the head into a little revamp of the library so that we can display them properly! Jarvis' brilliantly humorous writing and illustrations make Alan's Big Scary Teeth an instant hit with tiddlers, and yep even cynical tweenies will still giggle when Alan appears on the Savannah, ready to savage everyone with his gummy grin! This strong debut picture book will leave young listeners and librarians alike hungry for the author's next offering. However, Alan’s ‘Snap Snap Toothpaste’ hides a truth that no one in the animal kingdom, terrified by Alan, should ever discover – should they? Jarvis studied graphic design and previously worked as both a record sleeve designer and an animation director before becoming a children's book illustrator.

It was such a pleasure to meet you both, and I really appreciated how smoothly and professionally you ran everything. Your words, like your reviews, bring books to life and give them a voice before the front cover is even turned. But after a long day of scaring, Alan likes nothing better than to run a warm mud bath and take out his false teeth, which nobody knows about!
