Look Out, Leonard!

It’s moving day for the Shrew family, so Mrs. Shrew has asked them to all hold on to each other’s tails tightly so that nobody gets lost!
They set off in a long line, but wait, where’s little Leonard?

This picture book will have you on the edge of your seat as you follow Leonard, who manages to grab on to anything and everything that isn’t a shrew tail!

Narrowly avoiding catastrophe at every turn, from angry baboons to snapping crocodiles, will Leonard make it safely to the end of their journey?

Help Leonard find his way home with this fun activity sheet from DK!

  • Guide Leonard through the maze to find his family
  • Match the tails to the right animals
  • Draw yourself with Leonard and colour in your picture!
