Claude gets his Claws

The Secret Tunnels of Padstow

 

Charlie and Sarah's holiday in Cornwall takes an unexpected turn when their inquisitive nature leads them through a hidden door in the sand dunes that shrinks them down to the size of beetles.  They enlist the help of the local wildlife to help them get back to their normal size.  Meet the handosome jackdaw who will have his beady eye on you, the slightly balmy sea slater and his army of mad hatter sand hoppers that can't sit still and the sand eel dudes that flash between your toes in the shallows of the estuary.

 

A perfect first chapter book with illustrations on every page or read it to younger children to engage them in the joy of books.  There's humour, adventure, anticipation, plus a wildlife guide, trail and challenges around Padstow and Rock.
