Description

Big Pig's sister should have bought a cuddly toy at the zoo but instead she's put Tooky in her backpack. Tooky's not a toy. He's a toucan. A REAL toucan. And he's soon causing chaos. How will Wibbly and his friends ever get Tooky home? Wibbly is one of the most popular characters on CBeebies and his latest picture book adventure is bound to be a firm favourite with preschoolers. 'An irresistible character. Wibbly Pig does things every toddler can relate to.' The Daily Telegraph
