New Boots

Will a love of new footwear come between best friends? Cedric and Boo return in another delightful story for toddlers.

Boo the elephant has just bought a pair of shiny new boots. So shiny that he can see his face in them! He can’t stand the thought of getting them dirty, so he decides to give up playing outside. But Boo misses playing in the park with his best friend, Cedric the crocodile, and can’t help but join him in running through the autumn leaves. Now his boots are all muddy! But maybe all the fun he has with Cedric is more important. With a simple text and joyful illustrations, Tim Hopgood expertly navigates toddlers’ big emotions in a second story about a charming pair of friends.
