Synopses & Reviews
Shirley Hughes's classic character returns in a wonderfully splashy adventure and an accompanying CD with original music, sound effects, and a special read-along track Splish, splash, splosh! Stamp, stamp, stamp! Alfie's brand new yellow rain boots are perfect for splashing through puddles and stamping in mud. But something about them doesn't feel quite right. Whatever could it be? He's got them on the wrong feet.
