Roar!

A funny story full of noisy make-believe. Want to ROAR like a lion? Pretend you’re the king of the jungle. Go on. After their father reads them a story about lions, Elena and Isaac decide to become lions too. (Wouldn’t you?) That means growling through breakfast and gnawing on ‘bones’ before they trot off to school. Then their teacher takes the kids outside to look for wild animals. Who will be wildest of all? Elena and Isaac are ready to roar! Can you do it even louder?

It was in this final job that he discovered a gift for storytelling – but it still took a few years to write his first official book. Since then, Robert has never looked back and is most famous for books like The Paper Bag Princess. He was born in the USA and now lives in Canada.
