Shuffle and Squelch
Kuhusu kitabu hiki cha kusikiliza
Kick your boots off, everyone.
Summer's here and so's the sun.
In Shuffle and Squelch there are counting rhymes and animal rhymes, rhymes to make you shuffle and squelch and clatter and patter, and rhymes to make you gallop like a horse or slide down the banister.
From the fabulous picture book partnership of Julia Donaldson and Nick Sharratt and read by CBeebies TV presenter Justin Fletcher, these rhymes are packed full of noises and actions, making them perfect for joining in.
Look out for more poems from Julia Donaldson and Nick Sharratt in Wriggle and Roar!
