Flotsam and Jetsam and the Grooof: Racing Reads Series
By Tanya Landman
Illustrated by Ruth Rivers
Join Flotsam and Jetsam for their third adventure in this magical tale.
One day Flotsam and Jetsam find a whistle. They don't know what it is and, when Flotsam blows it, it makes a horrible sound so they keep it as a seagull scarer. But little do they know that someone else has heard it too -- a big dog with a wet nose who comes to investigate.
- An inventive story featuring characters made out of driftwood who live on a treasure-laden beach.
- Racing Reads are pacy first novels for the newly independent reader. Each book is extensively illustrated and the story-per-chapter structure is ideal for building confidence.
