When I Grow Bigger - Tapa blanda

A picture book about three big children and one little one by the author of the award-winning "So Much". "When I grow bigger" say Leanne and Sam and Natalie. But to baby Thomas, watching them play and yell and quarrel, they are big already, like three tall towers. Then Leanne has an idea. She decides that they should make Thomas grow! The three bigger children take him into the house and Leanne takes his arms and Sam takes his feet and they pull! Luckily, Thomas's dad arrives. He picks up Thomas and lifts him almost as high as the ceiling, then he carries him outside and Thomas's hands reach up to the sky. The other children watch, thoughtfully, looking up, up, up at big Thomas having fun! Trisha Cooke is the author of "Mr Pam Pam and the Hullabazoo" and "So Much", which won the 0-5 category of the 1994 Smarties Book Prize and the Kurt Maschler Award. John Bendall-Brunello has illustrated "The Big Bad Mole's Coming", "Easy Peasy" and his one story "The Seven and One Half Labors of Hercules".
