Aalfred and Aalbert

Publisher: Two Hoots

Aalfred sleeps all day and Aalbert sleeps all night, so the two seem destined never to meet. They could both do with a friend, so a small, blue bird devises plan after plan to try and get them together.

Unfortunately, schemes involving string, broccoli and very loud alarm clocks all fail, and it is a happy accident that finally unites the pair.

Fabulously imaginative and very funny, dynamic illustrations characterise this wryly comic tale of two lonely aardvarks and their unlikely match-maker. Featuring cheese, picnics and a happy-ever-after ending, there will be smiles all round at this unconventional love story.
