BOBO DORMOUSE PLAYS OUTSIDE! (Vol. 12)

One of Germany’s most successful picture book series for toddlers with more than 1.6 million copies sold!

Little Bobo Dormouse is making the most of the warm weather – there’s so much to do outside! He watches insects in the garden, collects berries, jumps around in front of the lawn sprinkler  with his friends, goes camping with Daddy and Jeremy on the shores of a lake – where they go swimming, set paper boats sailing on the water and bake bread on sticks over a campfire. He  joins Mummy for a trek through the woods where he climbs trees and builds a den before going on holiday with Granny and Grandpa to the mountains where he plays on the banks of a stream and pets the goats. Playing outside is the best!
