Shake the Tree!

"Shake the Tree!" is a delightful and interactive picture book perfect for young children aged 4-8. It follows a determined little mouse who simply wants a nut from a tree, but each shake brings down an unexpected, and often hungry, animal like a fox, a warthog, or a bear. The book encourages active participation, inviting readers to shake the book along with the characters, adding to the playful suspense of Mouse's narrow escapes. It's a charming story about quick thinking and perseverance, wrapped in a humorous, fast-paced narrative with a satisfying conclusion.

Various animals take turns shaking a tree in search of a tasty meal. It starts with Mouse who wants a nut so she shakes the tree a little to the right, and a little to the left. But it isn't the nut that falls from the tree, it's Fox who thinks that Mouse looks pretty tasty! Soon a warthog and then a bear come along with similar ideas. Little readers will enjoy the just-made-it escapes and the fun shaking-action that readers can do along with this interactive picture book.
