Book of the Month
Blue Chameleon by Emily Gravett
Blue chameleon is lonely, so turns himself into a variety of things in an attempt to make a new friend.
He curls his tail up like a swirly snail’s shell, hangs from the washing line like a stripy sock, rolls himself up like a spotty football and leaps across the page like a green grasshopper, but friendship eludes him.
This gently humorous book from the multi-award-winning Emily Gravett, introduces young readers to a range of colours and objects through one of the author’s most endearing characters yet.
