Welcome to the world of Hugg ‘n’ Bugg – comical stars of rhyming picturebooks by Ian Brown and Eoin Clarke, the team behind the ALBERT stories.
Bugg the Himalayan flea doesn’t like the cold. Hugg is a messy Yeti who can’t say Abominable
Snowman properly. He says ‘Bummy Nubble Snowman’. The unlikely pair team up. Hugg keeps Bugg warm. The flea keeps his furry friend tidy. Hop on, they’re itching to entertain you.
Real Albert is a Greek tortoise, also known as Mediterranean spur-thighed. Despite the name, they’re also found in Northern Africa, Southern Europe and parts of the Middle East. They have little fleshy spurs on their thighs, near the tail.
Albert might be aged 80. He was rescued more than fifty years ago. He has lived happily with the same family ever since.
It is not good for tortoises to be on their backs. It’s important to turn them the right way, as gently and carefully as you can. Always seek specialist advice before considering a tortoise as a pet and always consult expert guidance on tortoise care.
ALBERT UPSIDE DOWN is the first in a series of picturebooks featuring the character of Albert. It's available as ebook, animated ebook and paperback.
