  What if your pencil was the size of a crocodile, or just one pea filled your whole tummy at dinner? And what if No One would listen to you? Well that's just what happens to Shrinking Sam, who ends up knee-high to a grasshopper! Will someone listen to his shrinking pleas before it's too late? The key features include: lead title, supported by national and regional PR campaigns; from the illustrator of The Prince's Bedtime (978-1-84148-549-2), released in Autumn 2006; children will relate to the story's message of feeling overlooked as they laugh at the whimsical storyline and the friendship between Sam and Izzy; and powerful female character: Sam is rescued by Izzy, whose family also ignores her, and finds out from her how to grow again.
