Synopsis

Limelight Larry is delighted when he finds an empty book - he can be the star of the story! Then a whole host of storybook characters arrive and Larry - much to his outrage - is pushed out of the limelight . . .

This book is illustrated with style and sparkle by Leigh. There's even an amazing super-super-shiny foil page that shows Larry off at his very best. A picture book treat that will delight readers time and time again with its cast of funny, friendly characters.

Praise for Limelight Larry:

A book that's full of fun. - Glasgow Herald
A funky and flamboyantly illustrated story. A good life lesson on the joys of sharing. - Junior
A perfect blend of art, story, humour . . . I love it. - Bookbag
