'Our big blue sofa' by Tim Hopgood

Every day brings a new adventure for Jessy and Tom and their big blue sofa. One day they are underwater explorers on a big blue submarine, the next they are flying high above the clouds in a big blue hot air balloon.

Bouncing on the sofa is their favourite pastime but one day the sofa breaks. Can a new sofa ever be as much fun?

This is a funny colourful story that every child can relate to. The book includes a patterned fabric, giving the sofa a lovely 'touchy-feely' effect.
