Author: Peter Bently Illustrator: Lynne Chapman

Publisher: Farshore

Via the Signed Stories app, this picture book is told with a British Sign Language performance or subtitles, as well as narration, sound effects and specially-commissioned music. There's also two interactive games and story notes for parents and carers.
