When she was a baby, Ruby liked making popping noises with her dummy. 'Pop! Pop! Pop!' When she was older, she tried making scary noises instead. 'Scrrr! Screekle! Scrunch!' But she couldn't frighten anyone, not a frog, not a fish. 'Shivers!' thought Ruby. What was the scariest noise she could make? And she opened her mouth wide to find out...'Beware, this story could provoke a wild rumpus.'

Reviews

"Beware, this story could provoke a wild rumpus." --"Magpies"

"Like Wild's "Our Granny" (1993), this is a story filled with movement and physical affection. The lap-sit audience will love the squishy, lumpy sounds and the repetition of the text as they point to the animals in the clear, bright pictures." --"Booklist" on "Kiss Kiss!"

This is a great book. The noises the characters make are such fun. My daughter and I sit and read it at the top of our voices. This is a family favourite - one we had to buy so that the library got to reclaim their issue for other families to enjoy.
