Description
Mr Scribbley, Sat Nav and Worm had all their equipment packed, including binoculars, a camping stove and even a compass! Just where were they off to today? An adventure deep into Wriggle Woods for a spot of camping! Time for rest and relaxation: listening to trees swaying in the breeze, perhaps a babbling brook, sitting and telling stories around the campfire. And of course, some scribbley afternoon snoozes. Oh, and don’t forget barbecuing a few sausages!
They had planned lots of nature walks to see what they could spot, pick a few blackberries here and there… Oh, did you say blackberries? I didn’t see them come home with any. I only saw cake crumbs and footprints along the trail. Not to mention, Mr Scribbley looking very sorry for himself with a huge bandage wrapped around his head. He was sitting in the back of the bug mobile on the way home and Sat Nav was driving! Oh dear. Whatever happened out there in the woods?
Advance Praise
Amazon praise of Mr Scribbley: A Trip to the Seaside:
"This is such a delightful series. I’m sure little ones will love the repetition of some words. Storytellers will love all the characters and their voices. It’s just the right length of read for bedtime -not too long. I could imagine adding in extra items to reflect my grandchildren’s days at the seaside. Another splendid addition."
"Another wonderful Mr. Scribbley story. I enjoyed this read very much. Y.J. Toner has such a fun imagination when it comes to children's fantasy stories!"
Amazon praise of Mr Scribbley: A Day in the Garden:
"What a delightful story! Perfect length for bedtime. As a grandma, I could imagine reading this to my grandchildren when they were much younger. There is scope for a dramatic reading - character voices, drama, surprises and giggles. I can also see little ones getting interested in planting their own bulbs and seeds - never a bad thing! Mr Scribbley will obviously have many more adventures, I hope the little ones get hooked!"
"I love how completely bonkers this book is!"

Another lovely story in this series. I wish my 5 grandchildren were a lot younger (14 - 19!), this series would definitely be on their bedtime story list. Lovely illustrations, plenty to interest the little ones. Again, I see this is a stepping stone to getting little ones interested in the world around them. Lots of opportunities to chat about camping, animals, food and friendship.

My Rating: 5 Stars
I have read and enjoyed other Yvonne Toner children’s stories. So I am once again thanking you for another adventure in the wibble-wobble world.
This time Mr. Scribbley and his friends Worm and Sat Nav (a Dachshund he calls a sausage dog) are packing for a camping trip to Wriggle Woods -Looks like they have packed for a month.
Mr. Scribbley, of course, gets lost. But the friends enjoy being together and also are happy when they get back home!
In addition to the enjoyable prose the illustrations are fun as well!
I read a lot of thrillers so is it always enjoyable to escape to the world of children’s magic.
As a grandma as well as a guidance counselor, I do like reading children’s stories as well as recommend them to children, their parents and yes other grandmas.
I want to thank NetGalley and Troubador for granting me this delightful eGalley.
