BUMPS BUILDS A PALACE
by Korky Paul

|
Poor Billy Bumps, he's always
bumping into things. One day he bumped into a wall. ŒWhat a silly place
to build a wall,' he said. ŒI'll tear it down and build a palace.'
Another talented illustrator is
Korky Paul, who has created the ingenious BILLY BUMPS BUILDS A PALACE, which
cleverly tells a simple story to delight a younger child. Turn the pages in BILLY BUMPS BUILDS A PALACE by Korky Paul and everyone helps. The surprise ending was always well received! CAROUSEL SUMMER 96 This aptly named elephant has a tendency to bump and once he's bumped he's keen to rebuild to his own imaginative design. However, his laudable achievements are momentary and the bricks form a rumbling heap once more. It's all rather sad, but Billy Bump's consistent optimism suggests he'll cope. Young children find this really funny, and enjoy the cropped pages and humorous illustrations. They also love Zoé Paul's (7yrs) colourful elephants which March along the endpapers. Full of carefree chaos and destruction. BOOKS FOR KEEPS MARCH 96
